World's Largest Crude Column Installed (Video)

The crude column for Nigeria’s Dangote Refinery has been lifted onto its foundation. The column, weighing 2350t and standing 112m tall, was lifted and placed on its foundation as a single piece. Once completed, this complex will be the world’s largest single-train refinery with 650 MBPD of crude capacity. Process Consulting Services provided the process design for this historic crude unit.

See the video below, produced by Mammoet who completed this incredible lift.
