It didn't seem to matter how many times before we had ran spheres through the line, at the receiving trap we always ended up with a few pounds of welding icicles, grit and once a rubber glove. Clearing the receiving trap often ended up being a one-person job; Maybe if you were lucky they would send along some intern to be an assistant but you spent most of your time trying to keep them safe as they would do the stupidest things. Right below the mouth of the receiving trap was the ball valve for draining the trap. I spent more time getting junk out of that ball valve so it would not tear up the seals and it would flush clear in to the station sump. Meanwhile the damned horn on the phone of the station house was going off every five minutes with operators calling and demanding an explanation on why it was taking you so long.
May i ask, do you blow the line first or go straight to pigging. Doing my first oil pig next month. We are considering blowing only, no pig considering next hot oil load will re heat remaining cold oil from previous discharge
1st week on job I ran chainsaw on right-of-ways. I hadn't learned about this process yet, but I was hearing the phrase "pig chasing". For 3 days I thought, man these guys are into some messed up country 💩.
@@TheRustiestShackleford I have to tease the Western Hand's, possibly Cowboy's who put the Cable Clips on the cable used to pull the Pig out of the Test Head. The phrase, "Never saddle a Dead Horse" is the meme used to remind one that the saddle is to be never placed on the dead end of the cable!
Bad design on the door. Doesn’t allow the operator to be on the opposite side of the hinge when opening. Safe practice measure taken due to residual pressure that could be trapped.. glad no one was harmed. Also, guy in the red should have been warned about this also.
Its a safety lockout/tagout. It will contain the key to a lock on an isolation switch or possibly in this case being a pipeline a padlock keeping a valve from being turned while there are people working on it. Each worker has their own padlock and key. Its something that is taken very seriously, when I was working in mining I had heard of workers being flown back to site from their R&R just to remove their lock from a board.

Was this a Smart Pig Inspection OR was it to separate different products being pumped through the same pipeline?
Balanced4Harvest well it doesn’t look very smart to me. It looks like a big black chunk of HDPE.

What is the benefit of this process?
to cleaning the pipe
No respirator?
Pig stands for Pipeline Inspection Guide
Aah I thought it started with an actual dead pig.

What the lock box for?
