Truck Loading in Doha
We don’t know what is in these huge sacks; we see the same in Kuwait and think it may be cement on the way to be mixed – or sand to mix with the cement. They are not secured. It may be that the sheer weight of whatever is inside glues it to the truck bed, but we don’t want to be anywhere near these trucks when they go around a sharp curve – or a roundabout.
Here is a close-up. You can see they are not secured in any visible way:

could be cement or some sort of building material!
It’s drilling mud for the oil (in Qatar gas) wells that are drilled.
I’m trying to imagine the company that makes them and its various possible brand slogans.
“We make bags – really big bags.”
“The bag of all bags”
“A family of four can fit comfortably in any one of our bags”
“Bringing new meaning to the word “venti””
🙂
Ansam – that’s what I thought.
Ian – That’s something I never thought of. You sound serious – are you? Is drilling mud something you use to drill, or a by-product of drilling that is then removed? Would it be used for land reformation, like in the Pearl? I also see it in Kuwait, is Kuwait drilling gas?
Little Diamond – stop! stop! you’re cracking me up!
“You slag it, we bag it”
Imagine what it takes to fill those bags! To move those bags!
