Two New Oil and Gas Businesses To Locate In Jefferson County

Posted: Updated:

The Jefferson County Industrial Park is getting two new businesses in the near future.

Commissioner Tom Graham said that Premier Pump and North American Services Group will set up shop in the park.

"The two companies combined are expected to eventually employ about 125 people." said Graham.

Premier Pump has announced it will build a 5,000-square-foot facility on 4.8 acres.  While North American will build a large 15,000-square-foot facility on 10 acres.

North American is currently located in Follansbee and will move to the industrial park later this year.  The company provides industrial cleaning.

Both businesses are directly related to the oil and gas industry.

County officials, who don't want to be named, say other gas and oil type businesses have expressed interest in property at the industrial park.
