RockPile Energy Services, LLC has acquired American Well Service LLP (AWS), a Kenmare, North Dakota based Workover Rig Company.
American Well Service is a 6 rig Workover business, which provides both 24 hour and 12 hour cleanout and well intervention service operations. When added to RockPile’s current 6 rig business, the company will now have 12 Workover rigs servicing the Bakken with an operational presence in both the Northern and Southern portions of the basin.
American Well Service is an ideal fit with RockPile due to their reputation for high quality service delivery and a deep commitment to QHSE excellence. The acquisition marks RockPile’s first deal after being acquired by White Deer a week ago.
“We couldn’t be more excited to welcome the American Well Service team to the RockPile family. Their reputation for outstanding service is well known in North Dakota and we are confident they will make a great addition to our existing Workover business. Our combined service line will now have 12 Workover rigs operating in the basin with more to be added. We believe this provides RockPile with a great platform to serve our Clients across the Bakken and makes us as significant player in the North Dakota Workover market,” said Curt Dacar, CEO of RockPile.
American Well Service was founded in 2012 by a group of industry veterans and has grown from their initial rig to a 6 rig business with 60 employees. When combined with RockPile’s existing 6 Workover rigs, this gives RockPile a 12 rig business with a fully diversified service offering and geographic footprint within the Williston Basin. Additionally, American Well Service existing blue chip client base and ability to perform complex, 24 hour operations further bolster RockPile’s current rig business.
“On behalf of the AWS team, we want to thank Curt and RockPile for the opportunity to join their fantastic company. Given RockPile’s previous experience acquiring and growing Team Well Services from a 3 rig to a 6 rig business in a short amount of time, we feel very confident that teaming with RockPile will be a successful endeavor for our employees and all parties involved. We look forward to getting to work and continuing to grow a ‘Best-In-Class’ business together with our RockPile partners,” said Greg Wiedmer, managing partner of American Well Service.
