Your Trusted Partner for Precision Machining Services
Founded in 2011, our company was established to address critical service gaps in the Bakken oilfield's machining needs. Recognizing the industry's reliance on outsourced repairs, we began operations with a single machine and have since expanded to operate five CNC lathes, two manual lathes, two mills, and specialized equipment like radial arm drills. Our commitment to operational flexibility has led us to maintain extended hours beyond traditional 8-5 schedules, ensuring we meet the oilfield's demanding requirements.In 2013, we achieved a significant milestone by becoming a licensed NOV Grant Prideco service provider, enabling us to maintain widely used tubulars in the region. Our Quality Management System, implemented in 2016, reflects our dedication to precision and reliability. With over 40 years of combined machining expertise among our team, we maintain a balance between small-shop accessibility and large-shop capabilities, welcoming walk-ins and offering same-day service when needed.

Services
API Drill Pipe Repair
Our API-compliant drill pipe repair service addresses wear, corrosion, and connection damage using specialized equipment. We perform precision threading, drift testing, and non-destructive evaluations to restore pipe integrity. This service ensures operational safety and extends tool life for Bakken oilfield operations.
Custom Machining
We produce custom components through OD/ID grooving, threading, and multi-axis milling operations. Our CNC and manual lathes handle complex geometries up to 12.25" diameter. This service supports unique oilfield equipment requirements with tight tolerances and certified material options.
Cross Over Sub Manufacturing
Our licensed NOV Grant Prideco facility manufactures XT/GPDS series crossover subs with proprietary threading specifications. Using advanced lathes and quality control systems, we create transition components that ensure compatibility between different tubular connection types in drilling operations.
Pipe Straightening
We restore damaged drill pipes and shafts using hydraulic straightening equipment capable of handling large-diameter components. Our process combines precision measurement with controlled force application to correct deformations while maintaining material integrity for continued field use.
Phosphating Tubing Repair
Our phosphating process prepares tubing surfaces for improved corrosion resistance and coating adhesion. We service PH6, EUE, LTC, and BTC connections using dedicated chemical tanks and quality-controlled procedures to maintain tubing longevity in harsh operating environments.
