It's an old plant. I remember being shown valve body castings with swastikas on them because they were sourced in the 30s from Germany.
I can remember visiting the Motiva Port Arthur facility a few years back and they had recently dug up a literal wood pipe

“Wood pipe”!? Why that’s be nigh o’ calling’ Billy the Kid an ordinary hornswoggler. It’d hardly do him justice!
What you see here is a masterpiece of craftsmanship. Take notes, ye pigeon-livered son-of-wagtail!

I've seen these at ExxonMobil Baton Rouge.

I've worked on a project in the NE that had these. This was probably a few years before camera phones were common so I didn't get picks. Wish I did, most people don't believe these are a thing.

I can second this. I was on the CEP job and saw pics of it about 2 years after it was found during (I believe) planning an excavation for laying underground pipe in an early phase of the expansion. Think it was originally locating with Ground Penetrating Radar? Not 100%, that's been over a decade ago.
