Great pics, Walt. If I knew you had the Viper up there I would drive up from CO and take you out for lunch in hopes to get a ride in that beast!

Do you connect the the pipes by heat welding? (GLOBAL HEAT) I'm not shure if thats the correct term?

Yes most of the guys have Lincoln Welders mounted on heavy duty pickups.

I have a good friend who runs a crew that heats those pipes and I think he was in that area around march. Really cool stuff.

What kind of security do they have for those pipelines? Seems like you could probably spend nearly as much building earthen walls and fences as the pipe itself cost. Do they have surveillance on the entire line? A wandering guard or something?
Seems like a pretty dangerous cargo to go unsupervised through a line. Is it was broken, it would be dangerous, right? I know nothing about this, and all I can think of is a huge bang when some idiot runs hit ATV into it at full bore.

How much will it cost me to run a tap off of the main line directly to my house in MA?

Casey,
Passing a downhill welding test is no easy task and the firing line is its own monster.
Emanon,
The pipe with be buried and hydro tested (high pressure test with water) before it has any product put in it.
I was out in Rock Springs and Opal last year building two compressor stations, what station is your line tieing into? Looks like the large Williams plant just east of Opal.
