NOS uses a Bakken-First approach, working with you to optimize proven solutions. But what does that mean? Bakken-First is rather evident. We are focused on a single area. Our goal is to become a dominant niche player, a big fish in a small pond. This creates a natural advantage over other companies that are spread too thin - both geographically and mentally.

We are collaborative. We do not dictate; our focus is to serve. But at the same time we expect to be treated like a partner. We want those we work for to be people we work with. Solutions thinking is why we work with partners that share our vision.

Our focus is on the individual. Five personal relationships—the right five relationships—can account for 20% or more of the entire market.

We do not cultivate the herd; we cultivate the individual.

We believe that we are all unique and that our individuality must be cultivated.

In order to optimize, performance is key, and performance is measured by increased value over time. We accomplish this optimization through the next key tenant: 

We believe in what has been tested. We know that early tech is often unreliable and may cost you more time than it saves. We are dedicated to letting others blaze trails, both fruitful and wasteful. That’s when we come in, and take greatest advantage of the proven solutions to give our customers a consistent, yet ever-improving set of services and equipment offerings.

NOS solutions are hand-made. Tailored to fit. We believe that in the same way we cultivate the individual, we should cultivate the solution. This is why we focus on a single area instead of creating cookie-cutter programs across multiple plays. Solutions-based thinking is why we are dedicated to the “you” and not to the “I” or to the herd. We tailor what we do because optimization is at the core of our process. This is why new and flashy things are not as  attractive to us as proven technology is.
