Understanding Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD)

Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is a sophisticated trenchless technology that allows Borepoint to install underground utilities such as gas, water, electrical, and communication lines with minimal disruption to the surface. This technique is ideal for urban areas, environmentally sensitive locations, and difficult terrains, where traditional trenching methods would cause significant damage or disruption.

With HDD, we can accurately drill beneath roads, railways, rivers, and other obstacles, ensuring efficient and cost-effective installations. The precision involved in HDD ensures that we meet exact specifications while maintaining the integrity of the surrounding environment.

Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) FAQs

  • Pilot Hole Drilling: A small pilot hole is drilled along the predetermined path.
  • Reaming: The hole is then gradually expanded to the desired size to accommodate the required utility.
  • Installation: The utility, such as conduit, is pulled through the reamed hole using a drill string.
  • Final Testing: Once the installation is complete, we conduct thorough testing to ensure the integrity and functionality of the system.
  • Minimal Surface Disruption: No need to excavate large trenches, reducing environmental impact and improving safety.
  • Precision: Our advanced equipment and skilled team ensure that the drill path remains accurate, even in challenging environments.
  • Cost-Effective: HDD can often be completed faster and more affordably than traditional digging methods.
  • Versatility: Suitable for a variety of utilities, including gas, water, electrical, and communication lines.

Horizontal Directional Drilling is used in a wide range of industries, including:

  • Power and Electrical: Efficient conduit installation for power lines and electrical infrastructure.
  • Gas Distribution: Installing pipelines for gas utilities with minimal disruption to communities.
  • Water Management: Accurate drilling for water mains and other essential infrastructure.
  • Telecommunications: Laying communication cables and conduits for network expansion.
  • Advanced Equipment: We use the latest HDD rigs and technology for accurate and efficient drilling.
  • Experienced Team: Our team has over 20 years of experience in HDD and underground installations, ensuring every project is completed to the highest standards.
  • Environmental Responsibility: HDD minimises surface disruption, protecting the environment and reducing the need for additional restoration work.
