Sandhills Publishing launched OilfieldTrader.com, a website connecting buyers and sellers specifically in the market for oilfield equipment, including drill rigs, drilling and downhole equipment, production and support equipment, electrical equipment, valves and flanges, tubular goods, fishing and rental tools, oilfield trucks and trailers, as well as construction equipment such as pipe layers and cranes.

As an extension of Machinery Trader, OilfieldTrader.com will leverage Sandhills’ presence in the construction and heavy machinery industry to establish this niche market resource.

OilfieldTrader.com includes listings for oilfield equipment from sellers across the U.S. and in international markets. Users can browse listings by category, manufacturer, model, year, price, condition, or location, or perform specific search queries for individual assets. Qualified sellers post equipment to the website through the Sandhills Cloud, a suite of mobile-friendly, web-based business tools that includes solutions for real-time asset valuations, inspections, quoting, advertising at retail, rental, and wholesale, sending equipment to auction and invoicing. Resources for shipping, insurance, financing and payment processing are also integrated.

OilfieldTrader.com is the third brand extension of Machinery Trader. In 2017 Sandhills launched CraneTrader (a monthly magazine and online resource for cranes and rigging equipment), followed by ForestryTrader (a print and online resource for logging equipment) earlier this year.

“Each of our brands has become synonymous with buying and selling equipment for the industry it serves,” Evan Welch, Sandhills’ director of New Products, said. “OilfieldTrader.com extends that initiative to the oil industry, making it especially easy for buyers in the market for oilfield equipment to find exactly what they’re looking for, and for sellers to reach them directly.”
