hahaha sounds about right!! all our pipe racks are in heated sea cans or as soon as the connections lock up they would crack or shatter, nothing gets shut down or its not going to start again, so far we have had 3 hydraulic rams on the grader that keeps the road from camp to the rig looking pretty just sheer off when he's hit a chunk on ice on the side of the road haha everyday is an adventure haha
