I'm a pipe fitter/fabricator but often do some boilermaker type work. Most contractors seem to supply wrenches & sockets 2" and above so I'd say 3/4, 7/8, 1-1/16, 1-1/4, 1-1/8, 1-5/8, 1-7/16"s wrenches including spud wrenches and hammer wrenches, steel & brass banana wedges. A good 4 or 5lb short handle sledge hammer, some channel locks, 12" and 18" crescent wrench, large pry bars, bull pins, and large & small square headed wedges. Safety harness with 4 or 6' lanyard (some contractors supply), 18" and 24" pipe wrenches and maybe even a 4 1/2" grinder (DeWalt) grinder.
Like I said, I'm a pipe fitter/fabricator now but was a "bolt-up fitter" before which does a decent amount of boilermaker style work and that should get you to a good start on your tools.
Sounds like you're probably just starting out, be sure to get a good tool box like a a Joe Box or they sell some Rigid brand boxes at Home Depot (much cheaper) to store your tools. Also if you're new to the the refineries please listen to the guys the guys who've been out there doing it for years and be safe! Boilermaker is a serious job title!
