Ok, so the other day while standing in my cut shack I got bored and was playing with my celly... took a couple pics...

I was on a COP (change of product) to cut out some ULSD from a recent scrapper and smart pig runs on the pipeline.

Inside this cut shack with the single hydrometer setup

Ended up only sloppin like 140bbls (or just shy of 5,900 gallons)

My other cell and batch change report pad

Then my 2 system manifold with Limitorque motor operators. Which of coarse this one station and not nearly as impressive as my other main station.

The larger setup at my other station, that should look familiar to most

Yes very very very true... and to keep comms with them is even harder when they're reporting back to a blue line plc. I also have some rotork vlvs that are a bit nicer if you ask me. I'll snap some pics of those rotorks on our 450 hp units.
