 Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) is a technical advancement that allows construction and mining companies to reach unprecedented depths beneath the surface of the earth. Engineers can use it to steer drilling equipment horizontally to develop paths through tough terrain or locate deposits beneath the earth's surface. Many businesses have adopted this technology as an easy way to avoid rock formations and other obstacles while also increasing earnings. HDD is also a trenchless method of installing underground pipes, cables, and service conduits. It comprises using a directional drilling machine and associated accessories to drill accurately along the specified bore route and return ream the suitable pipe. Horizontal directional drilling , which is normally done by directional drilling contractors, is suitable for use in regions where trenching is forbidden, such as beneath a railroad, an embankment, a roadway, or beneath lakes and rivers. Because of better HDD steering technol...

Know The Differences Between Horizontal Directional Drilling & Traditional Method

Image
  Trenching is the most common method for installing and connecting underground utilities. The method is used widely all over the world but it has some limitations and that is why a new method and practice have been introduced. The method of trenching is known as the traditional method for installing underground utilities.  Directional boring is also called horizontal directional drilling. It is a trenchless method for installing underground utilities such as pipelines, conduits, etc. The technology is known for the way to get utilities from one point to another without disrupting the surface level. Horizontal directional drilling is considered a better option because the technique has multiple pros which you cannot get in the traditional method. It is also used for installing underground utilities over long distances.  In this blog, we are going to discuss all the factors which make horizontal directional drilling different from the traditional trenching method of insta...

Know The 6 Major Benefits Of Horizontal Directional Drilling

Image
Horizontal Directional Drilling is a new technology that is used for underground utility installation. It is a trenchless method that allows better accuracy and high flexibility in placement. Horizontal Directional Drilling also eliminates the need for costly digging, large crews, road closures, and other complications of traditional digging and underground installation in construction projects. The Horizontal Directional Drilling technology is totally different from the traditional digging method in terms of execution. It is because the traditional system of digging the surface to install underground utilities involves disrupting the surface level by making an open cut. Horizontal Directional Drilling does not disrupt the surface level which brings multiple benefits in completing construction-oriented projects. In this blog, we are here to let our readers know the 6 benefits that they can get if they choose the method of Horizontal Directional Drilling to install underground utili...
