Crew of the Month for May 2025
Coker 1 Team
This May, we’re recognizing the exceptional 30-person Turner crew from Sulphur, Louisiana, for their outstanding work on the CITGO Coker 1 Outage/Sluiceway Rail Repair project. This team not only completed the project significantly ahead of schedule and under budget, but they also did it with a perfect safety record, achieving zero recordable incidents. Their scope of work included demolishing and disposing of 430 linear feet of concrete, salvaging and reinforcing existing rebar, and securing new foundations.
Carl Lockhart, CITGO Construction Manager, had high praise for the crew, stating, “Overall the project performance from Turner was excellent, and that reflects directly on the supervision that was involved from the planning stages and throughout the outage. Turner supervision did an outstanding job staying ahead on making sure the crews had everything they needed to perform the task for each shift without delays. Thanks again for all of the hard work and effort that was put into this project to make it a success.”
