December 10, 20241 min read

Working in North Dakota’s oilfields during winter presents unique challenges, from frostbite risks to unpredictable weather. Being unprepared for freezing temperatures can quickly turn dangerous. Equipping yourself with the right winter PPE is essential for safety and comfort during the colder months.

Winter PPE Must-Haves:

  • Insulated Coveralls: These provide full-body protection against extreme cold.

  • Thermal Hats and Face Masks: Prevent frostbite on the face, ears, and neck.

  • Windproof Jackets: High winds combined with cold temperatures can drastically lower your body temperature.

Winter Vehicle Gear for Emergencies:

  • Extra Fuel: Keep an emergency fuel container in case of long delays or detours.

  • Snow Chains or Winter Tires: Help improve traction on icy roads.

  • Reflective Safety Vest: If you need to leave your vehicle, being visible to others is critical.

Winter in North Dakota is nothing to take lightly. Prepare for the worst—head to Basin Safety Consulting in Williston or Dickinson to stock up on proper winter PPE.
