Oil & Gas Drilling Operations Benefit From Strong Electrical Distributor Support

As outlined in a recent article on eweb.com by Jim Lucy, the oil and gas industry activities in the continental United States have been a bright spot in an otherwise dull electrical supply industry. The Bakken oil and gas boom in western North Dakota has created a large demand for industrial electrical products. Combined with “oil fracking” activities occurring along the Marcellus Shale zone throughout New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia - there’s never been a better time to be an electrical distributor that supports the oil and gas industries.

In fact, the surge in drilling activities, recovery, and processing of oil and natural gas has caused all types of suppliers to establish themselves in these active drilling areas. Local electrical distributors have expanded while out-of-state distributors have opened new facilities. All to support and supply the multitude of oil and gas operations and their associated industries.

Repco replacement contacts and brushes are available through most electrical distributors

One side effect of the explosive growth in the Bakken and Marcellus regions has been supply shortages as demand often outpaces supply. Fortunately, Repco inventories 1000s of OEM compatible electrical contacts and carbon brushes. Most available for immediate shipment to restock electrical distributors, ensuring short downtimes and affordable, regular maintenance.

As previously written, “Oil rigs need power too”, oil and gas drilling operations require industrial electrical equipment. Generators, pumps, cranes, and more must all work optimally and consistently to keep oil and gas resources profitable to extract. And Repco and their electrical part distributors help keep drilling and processing operations going.
