CNRL H-24 Waukesha Engine Swap

CNRL, one of our valued clients commissioned Roil Projects Inc to remove a failing natural gas compression engine and haul it back to Grande Prairie, Alberta for repairs. We were asked to come out and scope the job to see if it was possible to remove it from the building’s entrance doorway; which is the way we typically remove these engines whenever possible. For our clients, It saves time and money if we can use one of our reverse jib knuckle boom/picker trucks to sneak into the building via an access door or panel, attach one of our custom made engine lift bars, and then remove and replace the failed unit. Our operations manager Brandon Charbonneau went out to the location to see if it was possible to pull it using a reverse jib as the mechanics were unsure if it was possible. Once on site Brandon quickly realized that it was going to be an extremely tight lift and accessing the doorway wasn’t going to be possible
