    That's the most insane thing I've ever seen moved along a highway. Unreal. So let me get this right: That ENTIRE tube gets filled up with crude oil, and then heated, so that the oil separates into different densities of stuff like coke, heating oil, diesel fuel, gasoline, kerosene, and jet fuel?

    Not coke is coal by product .. I think Coke yes .. Coke is a grey, hard, and porous coal-based fuel with a high carbon content and few impurities, made by heating coal or oil in the absence of air-a destructive distillation process

    In Australia there is a Minority Debate going on about :- What Work Should You do On Site ?. What Work can be Prefabbed Elsewhere, Usually at a Larger Population Centre and Transported in ?. Anyway :- Large Size of Equipment is a Very Good Reason to Build it On Site. Road Maintenance and Safety is Another Reason to Build it On Site. Transport in by Rail is Another Consideration.

    Maybe one of the biggest single load vessels but very far from the size and weight of the switch gear skid units out of Calgary years ago.
