We specialise in trenchless construction using machinery ranging from 4t to 400t. We typically manage challenging geologies through both traditional walk-over tracking and Wireline systems, ensuring strict adherence to specifications for clients.
Our dual perspective as a contractor and client representative on large-scale pipeline projects demonstrates our ability to manage complex projects beyond HDD works. This versatility highlights our commitment to streamlining project delivery and providing unparalleled services to achieve the client's goals.
Our expertise allows us to assess trenchless construction feasibility before tender applications, minimising deviations from contract specifications. Recognising the industry's trend for proposal design alterations and the need for new permits, we work to prevent delays and additional costs.
We are proficient in the required documentation and constructability constraints across various methodologies, including:
· Trenchless Profiles
· Installation Calculations
· Hydrofracture Analysis
· Site Layouts
· Drilling Fluid Designs / Programs
· Break-Over Plans
· HDD Anchor Block Reports
· BHA Summaries and Suitability
· General Civil Construction
· Dewatering
· Environmental Control Design
· Shoring Systems, Benching / Battering
· Grouting
Effective client supervision of HDD works is essential to ensure projects are completed safely, efficiently, and to precise specifications and environmental requirements. The client's supervisor plays a critical role in overseeing the contractor’s performance, from equipment setup and operation to adherence to safety protocols.
During drilling, the client's supervisor monitors drilling fluids and parameters such as borehole direction and depth, ensuring the contractor aligns with the planned trajectory. They must also stay vigilant to any subsurface changes or obstacles that could affect drilling progress and pipeline integrity.
Supervision remains critical during pipe installation, ensuring the contractor applies proper pulling force and achieves accurate installation to required depths and alignments. Prompt resolution of any issues during installation is vital to prevent damage to the product pipe.
Overall, client supervision of HDD works is indispensable for achieving safe, efficient, and specification-compliant project outcomes. A knowledgeable and experienced client supervisor minimises risk and ensures the contractor completes the project on time and within budget.
Our comprehensive experience and knowledge make us the ideal partner for your next project.
