You thought the truckstop parking lot was full!
This is a big frac job just west of were I live. Picture from Oil & Gas Enquirer. For those not familiar with oilfield (hydraulic fracturing process). I count 20 pumpers in this picture. Each pump truck is capable of approx. pumping in excess of 42bbls / min @ 10000 PSI.
A total approx $ amount of the iron on this job alone....
20 pumpers @ $950,000.00 ea. (trucks in circle the wagon formation with 4 in middle near wellhead)
3 data trucks @ 1,200,000.00 ea. (bodyjob trucks with the smoke tint windows)
2 chemical vans @ 1,000,000.00 ea. (closest to the 400bbl. tanks)
2 nitrogen trucks @ 1,500,00000 ea. (left of chemical vans)
2 blender truck units @ 1,200,000.00 ea. (left of N2 trucks)
6 proppant trucks @ 350,000.00 ea. (far side and near side of N2 units)
2 UFA bulk fuel trucks @ 125,000.00 ea. (orange cabs...hey, these units need fuel to get the job done)
1 fire/saftey shower truck @ 600,000.00 ea. (silver with burgandy stripes far left...Firemaster)
1 iron truck @ 230,000.00 (he is the poor soul right next to the wellhead far left)
1 bodyjob vacumn truck @ 185,000.00 (blue and white, far left)
Lets tally up now....
That works out to $33,365,000.00 in one spot. Oh... forgot the ford pickup, so add another $50,000.00.
That doesn't include the wellhead, light plants or the storage tanks, and of course the frac fluid which is being injected into the
formation which by itself can run into seven figures.
Kinda gives you that holy*#:! feeling huh,
Trican has an operations office in Red Deer which they deploy a large fleet of trucks like this to service the surrounding oilpatch.
Hope you enjoyed, Thanks for looking.
