Construction - Newton Aycliffe, England, United Kingdom
A Drilling, Construction, Trenching and Directional Drilling company based in Newton Aycliffe in the North-east of England. Directional Drilling Directional drilling is an efficient, cost-effective way to install pipelines in virtually any material. Pipe lengths up to 100m can be easily installed without the need to sub-divide sections or dig into the ground. This not only means less hassle and heightened productivity – it also means significantly less waste material and less disruption to local surroundings. How does it work? To start with, we visit the site and carry out the necessary surveys of the area. We identify suitable locations for the receiving hole and entrance pits. These pits enable us to collect drilling fluid and reclaim it – which keeps costs down and minimises wastage. What jobs are suitable for directional drilling? Here's just a few projects that can be completed using directional drilling. Motorway crossings – single and multi-ducts River crossings Rock directional drilling Railway crossings Pipeline installations under buildings Town installations (even in high traffic areas) Chemical pipelines Subsea installations (for windfarms etc.) Deep-drainage installations Ground source heating systems. Pipe Bursting Why pipe bursting? Pipe bursting systems are an effective way of replacing a whole range of different pipe types – including concrete and pitch fibre, clay and steel. It's suitable for installing pipes with a diameter of up to 30m, and in lengths of up to 100m – and keeps disruption to a minimum, even in busy, built-up areas. Pipe bursting systems can even be operated from existing manholes or temporary pits.
