Activities
It started with plotting the coordinates of the drilling plan, excavating the entry and exit points and initiating the pilot drilling process. Following successful pilot drilling, the reamer phase could begin. We installed the pipes one by one, because of the limited space available in the middle of a residential estate. It’s what we call a fantastic example of ‘building on a postage stamp’. We finished by suctioning a ‘string’ through the pipe, to allow the client to install the winch. It was time to clean up our mess and move onto the next job. The entire operation was completed without any issues, within a day.
Special Circumstances
