A refinery shutdown and maintenance period for Total. A documentary of the process. 12 days filming reactive to weather with very tight restrictions.
Commissioned in 2019 for film production services to show the turnaround and inspection period at the Lindsay Oil Refinery, we were asked to film colossal pieces of machinery that were shipped from around the world to Immingham dock, and then transported via closed roads to Linsday. Once in place, we then returned 4 months later to see installation and testing, which was totally weather dependent and reliant on very low winds due to work at height.
We attended 12 days of production, with 8K filming, 6K filming, 4K drone filming and time-lapse photography making up the final edit.
The final edit was visually stunning.
