Colville

What Colville does

Colville Inc. is an Alaska-based, family-owned provider of vertically integrated arctic logistics services to the oil and gas industry on Alaska's North Slope. Headquartered in Prudhoe Bay and operating as a subsidiary of Colville Holding, the company has provided fuel, transport, waste-management, aviation, industrial-supply, camp, and towing services since 1944. Its primary customer base consists of oilfield operators, exploration companies, and contractors working in the Prudhoe Bay, Kuparuk, Alpine, and NPR-A regions, with secondary reach into commercial and private aviation operators transiting Deadhorse Airport (SCC).

The company's core technology is a vertically integrated fuel supply, storage, and distribution system anchored by two bulk tank farms totaling approximately 6 million gallons of storage capacity, a fleet of 54 tractors, 85 tank trailers, and 13 pup tank trailers hauling over 2 million gallons of fuel per month up the Dalton Highway, and 54 field-portable storage tanks available for rental. Supporting infrastructure includes 500+ roll-off dumpsters, six hook trucks, and 12 flatbed trailers for solid waste services, a Fixed Base Operation at Deadhorse Airport, and the Brooks Camp accommodations facility. All transport equipment is Arctic-spec heavy-duty with in-cab camera systems and DOT-compliant digital electronic logbooks. Colville Solid Waste operates as one of the largest public utility districts in the United States for solid waste on the North Slope, handling municipal solid waste, construction and demolition debris, metals, recyclables, and oily waste.

Colville generates revenue through transaction-fee streams across each service line: fuel sales and distribution, fuel transport logistics, aviation fueling (including cardlock and deicing), solid waste services, commercial towing and recovery, industrial supply through Brooks Range Supply, and camp accommodations through Brooks Camp. Pricing is largely quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with a rate sheet available for solid waste services. The go-to-market motion is direct enterprise field sales to North Slope operators, supported by a partnership with Avfuel that places Colville Aviation Services into a global aviation fuel network. The company operates exclusively in the United States, with service coverage spanning Alaska from the North Slope to the Kenai Peninsula.
