Williston ND Trucking & Freight Industry Overview

Williston is the central oilfield freight hub of the Bakken oil-and-gas region. US-2 carries the cross-state east-west spine and US-85 runs north-south carrying constant tanker, sand, and oilfield-service truck volume to the surrounding well-pads, drill rigs, and crude-oil collection terminals.

Williston is a city in and the county seat of Williams County, North Dakota, United States. The 2020 census gave its population as 29,160, making Williston the sixth-most populous city in North Dakota.

Williston runs on the Bakken oilfield freight economy. Tanker trucks moving crude oil and produced water, sand-trucks carrying frac sand to the well-pads, and pipeline construction equipment all generate constant truck volume on US-2 and US-85 plus the dense network of county and oilfield-service roads. A breakdown carrying a hazmat tanker requires very specific protocols and our network has the trained personnel and equipment.

Williston freight has the highest hazmat and oilfield-service truck mix of any market in our coverage area. Crude oil and produced-water tankers, sand-trucks running frac-sand routes, cementing and chemical-service trucks, and the heavy-haul oilfield rigs all need different dispatch protocols. Our network maintains hazmat-credentialed responders and heavy-equipment expertise specifically for the Bakken market.
