That truck driver is makin some major $$$JACK$$$ on that job!!

 

I just got back from Fort McMurray yesterday. I work up there once a month.

If you think thats big - you should see the size of the refinery.

 

A coker or coker unit is an oil refinery processing unit that converts the residual oil from the vacuum distillation column or the atmospheric distillation column into low molecular weight hydrocarbon gases, naphtha, light and heavy gas oils, and petroleum coke. The process thermally cracks the long chain hydrocarbon molecules in the residual oil feed into shorter chain molecules.

 

Um, no - thats a crusher.

 

Bobby, where did you get those pics? Are they recent?

I think this one might be bigger:

is that beast a TT?? whats up with the two intake boxes? also, wonder what the top speed was on that project

 

TT?

The top speed is very slow. By car, its roughly 5-6 hours from Edmonton to Fort McMurray - but I believe something like this takes 5-6 days to get there.

 

TT = twin turbo.....

 

I have no idea about twins on that truck. I know some of the bigger Industrial Cummins engines have 4 turbos on them.

 

got them off a e-mail.
