Horizontal Directional Drilling

 
   

Continued...

The pulling head is attached to the pipeline which has its initial sections elevated on rollers to give it an included angle introduction to the drilled hole. Special care has to be taken during the pulling of the pipe to avoid "kinking".

Pulling loads are constantly monitored and the position of the pipeline is recorded as pulling proceeds. This information is reproduced to obtain "as built" information

On recent occasions this rig has been used both in the UK and overseas and Stockton (Pipelines) Limited have been delighted with its performance as it has exceeded their expectations.

Once again Bennett Associates' design expertise, working in close co-operation with the client, produced detailed CAD manufacturing drawings which enabled the rig to be manufactured by non-specialist fabricators. The client benefits in several ways by this close co-operation. In the final analysis, however, the main benefit is that "they get the tool they want for the price they want".
