With a fleet of 65 Kenworth C500s, ATK Oilfield Transportation provides oil rig moving services throughout Western Canada and Texas. Founded by Artie Kos, who previously had built and sold one of the largest privately-held trucking companies in Canada, ATK was launched in 2010 with then-new C500s carrying the load.
The large tandem-tandem C500s among the fleet are “most critical to our business,” notes ATK Chief Operating Officer Les Ovelson. They’re long 430-inch wheelbase trucks outfitted with a “large, long bed used to physically dismantle drilling rigs.”
