DIRECTED HORIZONTAL DRILLING

It is anunderground method of installing pipes without a ditch by a fully steerable drilling.

Advantages:

  • Low impact on traffic in the area.
  • You save time in the installation of piping.
  • Lower costs in remodeling and reconstruction.
  • Minor civil, environmental and visual impact on the area, avoiding nuisance to neighbors.
  • You can avoid obstacles (buried pipes, rocks, foundries, streets, etc.)

STEPS TO CONDUCT A SUCCESSFUL DRILLING:

  • Study of the work
  • Pilot Drilling
  • Operation widening
  • Pipe Installation

1. Study the work

  1. GPR mapping
  2. Topography study
  3. Soil Study
  4. Drilling plan

2. Pilot Drilling

Drilling along the planned route in the study. For this purpose a drill head which allows changes in direct routes are used. The orientation is controlled at all times by systems to the work educated navigation; this allows the location of the drill head and ensures the designed route tracking.

3. Widening

Once the pilot drilling has been completed until the second trench, the drill headis substituted by a reamer and proceeds to pull it in reverseto the point of origin. In cases where the diameter of the product to be installed allows it, a single widening tool is used and the pipe is installed.

4. Pipe Installation

The pipe previously thermo-welded is secured behind the reamer and introduced into the interior of the drilling by pulling it gently, since thesuspension consisting of a composition of sludge acts as slide means, it reduces friction against the walls, removes debris particles and prevents heating of the drilling tool. The pipe already installed keepstension-free.

POLYETHYLENE PIPE

Designed for pressurized fluid lines, used in all applications including construction.

Advantages:

  • Union: The union is the strongest part of the tube.
  • No leaks: thermo-bonded seams ensure the customer that the pipe will not leak.
  • Water hammer: The pipeline is designed to withstand water hammer repeatedly 1.5 its design pressure and up to 2x times.
  • Accessories: It has all kinds of accessories. Accessories that can be electro-fused once the pipe is installed (for household connections, branch pipes, etc.)
