Dakota Fluid Solutions, LLC is a Dunn County-focused ND operator carrying a portfolio of 472 total wells, 242 active and 190 currently producing, with 74 plugged. As of June 25, 2026, the company has 2 pending well-authorization cases (32980 and 32981) both targeting the Little Knife Field, each carrying a 73.7% probability of progressing. A win rate of 85% and a ramp score of 3.5 paint a picture of a methodical, consistently successful operator growing at a measured pace rather than an aggressive one. Work-type exposure spans new-pad dirt & construction and rentals & workforce — service-side activities that complement but do not define its production footprint.
