There are almost 150 active rigs in North Dakota alone. Of the 150 active rigs, 16 spread out between Bowman, Burke, Bottineau, and Divide Counties. According to experts, having a stable infrastructure and established drilling throughout the region could prevent contraction if something such as a drop in oil prices occur.
Divide County, ND is in the heart of the oil boom which is pushing US oil production to rival that of Saudi Arabia. The number of rigs changes daily in this highly active oil region. Check local publications for exact rig counts. add a comment
