    I remember building a cold tower for a LNG plant it weighed 160 tons toke 3 month to come to AZ from TX. Had the Bragg Track Crane sitting for two months waiting for it. Was awesome seeing it pick it up and lift it 50ft above the pipe racks and track it’s way bout 150 to set it down.

    I worked at Phillips 66 in Sulpher, Tx like 4 or 5 years ago and they had this kinda crane there,to replace the Coker silos.. it was giant.. it took other big ass cranes to lift the spreader bar and straps they used.. it was crazy..
    They had to book the crane like 3 years in advance, and if you weren't ready to use it, ohh well then they'll bring it just to sit there.
    It was the largest crane in North and South America..

      @@fishfire_2999 They're calling this one a wash tower. I don't know the specific operation of this one, but distillation columns can be a similar design. The process will generally either enter at the top and filter or separate as it works it's way down through the internal trays or it can go in at the bottom and the lighter fluids will rise upwards and separate from the material. I'm sure there are better explanations available online. And I'm an Inspector, not a chemical engineering so my operational knowledge is limited.

    Hard enough to build such a large piece of equipment. Now it's got to be transported from fabricator to work site. After all that, now it needs to be lifted. Not just an easy pure vertical lift, it has to be turned 90 degrees from its side, then lifted with millimeter precision. The crane is 4 cranes together and there are multiple support cranes also. If it's huge and heavy, who you going to call? = Mammoet.
