Directional Drilling
Drilling for Utility, Fiber Optics, and Conduits
Our technology is ideal for completing projects quickly, reducing recovery costs, and keeping streets, yards, parking lots, fields, and any other landscape undisturbed. Don’t ruin your yard. Why shut down that busy parking lot? No need to disrupt traffic and no need for trenching.
What is Horizontal Directional Drilling
Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is a construction technique whereby a tunnel is drilled under a waterway or other designated area, and a pipeline or other utility is pulled through the drilled underground tunnel. The underground tunnel follows an arc line from the entry point, down under the special crossing area, and then resurfaces on the opposite side. Using advanced technology and highly trained technicians, a drill head guides the drilling pipe electronically to ensure the angle, depth, and exit point adhere to carefully designed engineering plans.
Trenchless construction reduces about
75% of carbon emissions
Trenchless Construction for the Lowest Carbon Footprint
Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is the absolute most responsible choice for construction in both environmentally sensitive areas and populated urban centres alike. With minimal ground disturbance, and absolutely no need for open trenching, HDD is the most efficient solution for crossings under roads, rivers, buildings, and railroad tracks.
