Winter in Oil Field

Winter Preparedness for Oilfield Drivers: PPE and Safety Tips for Navigating North Dakota's Harsh Conditions

December 17, 20241 min read

Driving through North Dakota's winters is challenging, especially for those in the oil and gas industry. With ever-changing weather conditions, it’s critical to not only have the right PPE but also a fully equipped vehicle to deal with unexpected emergencies.

Key PPE for Winter Driving:

  • Insulated Jackets and Pants: Essential for warmth if you need to exit your vehicle for any reason.

  • Waterproof Gloves and Boots: Keeping your hands and feet dry is vital to avoiding frostbite.

  • Fleece-Lined Hats: Prevents heat loss from your head, one of the most vulnerable areas in cold weather.

Vehicle Emergency Kit Essentials:

  • Snow Chains: Required for added traction on icy roads.

  • Portable Shovel: For digging out if you become stuck.

  • Battery Pack for Electronics: Keep your phone and other devices charged in case of emergencies.

Stay safe on the road by ensuring both your vehicle and your PPE are winter-ready. Stop by Basin Safety Consulting in Williston and Dickinson to gear up for winter.
