Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

Peterbilt 386 Oilfield Fleet - By John Ross


These photos are part of John Ross' oilfield support truck fleet. Shown above left (grey and red trailer) is a tubing coil trailer which used to inject chemicals and water into the drill hole. In the foreground above is a nitrogen rig (trailer with the blue tank) which injects nitrogen to help move oil through the ground; it also helps protect against explosions. Below, the trailer with the two vertical tanks in a cement rig which injects cement down the drill hole to seal it. In the background are all the tanks that hold the water and waste water from the drilling process.
