PIG fried in OIl
Posted: Sat Aug 04, 2012 8:17 pm
A PIG (Pipeline Inspection Gauge) fried (as in an electronic circuit board) in (crude) oil. These devices are put in the pipeline sections
to scrape off the paraffin wax build-up in the pipelines and also whole lot of sensors are attached to these devices to inspect
the pipeline segments checking seams for weld failures etc., Trans Alaskan Pipeline. This one is now out of service and serves as
an exhibit. Taken with Dimage A2.
