“To Whom Much Is Given, Much Is Required”
Staged with a 80 meter base on the Kaylan Seibert Double Schnable getting ready to roll.
BP Vessel Move
In June of 2019, FT&L Specialized was contacted by one of its dedicated customers to make a difficult
transport from Tulsa OK to Wando SC. The vessel weighed 80,000 pounds, had a transport height of
18’10”, 17’ 10” width, and a overall length of 128’. We utilized our 40ton perimeter frame trailer coupled
with one of our 605 hp Peterbilt 389’s. The journey took us from Tulsa OK through southern TX into LA,
zig zagging through the southern states for a total of 30 days before reaching our final destination. At the
peak of the transport, there were as many as 30 support vehicles including State police, pilot vehicles,
bucket trucks, various utility companies and private security. Pictured here is a sensitive “wrong way”
rail crossing where the vessel height exceeded the height of the rail warning system. The precision
maneuver to cross the rails, concrete median and avoid the warning system took days of planning and
developing contingencies. The maneuver was completed in less than 12 minutes.
Sexton Vessel Colorado Flare Stack
In April of 2019, FT&L Specialized transported a 64’ long 15’ tall and 15’8” wide flare stack from
Cincinnati OH to Denver CO. This unique move was completed in less than 7 days, meandering through
the central US with a 4 person team, meeting our customers time sensitive requirements with 3 days to
spare.
