Pilot Flying J Truck Stop At The 13-Mile Corner North Of Williston

I don't recall posting this earlier or seeing it at the Williston Wire. A writer comments that Pilot is building a truck stop at the 13-mile corner north of Williston. This is an incredible location. Remember, Love's is also building north of Williston.

According to wiki:

Currently, Pilot Flying J is the largest purveyor of over-the-road diesel fuel in the United States. Pilot Flying J also is known as the largest Travel Center chain in the country with over 550 locations under the Pilot and Flying J brands. Pilot Flying J is also the third largest franchisor of quick service restaurants in the nation, offering one to three different concepts at each location, and is also the largest franchisee ofSubway in the world with over 200 locations. Unlike many travel centers and truck stops, the majority of locations with the Pilot Travel Centers brand do not utilize full-service dining.

Wow, it would be great if these truck stops would see a market for natural gas vehicles. I'm counting on Heckmann to raise the bar.

NOTE: first comment from "anon 1": Pilot Flying J is the key LNG truck stop partner for Clean Energy Fuels' Natural Gas Highway. Additional information in a SeekingAlpha.com article.

And, again, a huge "thank you" to a reader for alerting me to this development. I would be curious to hear what all is being developed at the 13-mile corner. The corner is in Tyrone oil field, just west of the East Fork field.

Just for the fun of it, there is one producing well right at the 13-mile corner, on the northwest side:

• 19048, 705, Petro-Hunt, Borrud 156-101-11D-2-1H, t8/11; cum 69K 7/12;

When I was a teen-ager (probably the summers between my sophomore and senior years of high school) I picked rocks on Dr Borrud's land a few miles north of the 13-mile corner on the east side of US Highway 85. It was the most back-breaking work I had ever done, but it was not the worst job I have ever had.
