The modules will range up to 4,000 tons in weight. Participating with Sohio, which will bear $1.1 billion of the esti- mated $2 billion cost of the Alaskan project, are Amoco Production, Arco Alaska Inc., Cook Inlet Region Inc., Doyon Ltd., Exxon Corp., NANA Regional Corp., and Unocal Corp. According to Brown & Root, the new Port of Iberia plant will employ about 300 people by year's end; however, about 1,500 workers will be employed when the plant is in full operation in 1986 and 1987. New 'Maintained Focuses On Cooling Systems And Turbochargers Operation and care of engine cool- ing systems are examined in a new issue of the Waukesha Maintainer, a publication from Waukesha En- gine that promotes proper operation and maintenance of all makes of gasoline, diesel and natural gas en- gines. An additional article explains the principles of turbocharging and pro- cedures for retrofitting turbocharg- ers to naturally aspirated engines to increase power output.
