North Dakota is part of the "Fracking Boom" and has substantial oil and gas production.

North Dakota is a key player in the U.S. "Fracking Boom," thanks to its significant oil and gas production from shale formations like the Bakken Shale. The state's use of hydraulic fracturing (fracking) technology has led to a rapid increase in oil extraction, making North Dakota one of the top oil producers in the country. The Bakken Formation, located primarily in North Dakota, has been a major driver of this boom, with its vast untapped reserves providing a crucial source of domestic energy. This surge in production has transformed North Dakota's economy, creating jobs and boosting energy independence.
