If you wanna see cutouts of a bunch of this equipment, a pig in a transparent pipe, and just happen to be in Oman, the petroleum development museum there is super.

Id imagine there's something similar in Houston, this stuff is legit fascinating.

One of my earliest memories when I started working in O&G many moons ago was seeing the hilarious daily report "Pig stuck in pipe". From a technology perspective it's an amazing industry, combining old-tech and human experience with some of the most advanced tech that can work in harsh environments similar to space.
