TRENCHLESS CONSTRUCTION

The nature of traditional open cut pipeline construction can be intrusive and destructive.

This presents challenges in protecting existing infrastructure and maintaining a positive community sentiment during the construction phase.

As a solution-focused business, TI always look for the innovative option. The use of trenchless technologies significantly reduces disturbance to the environment and community and can improve efficiency. Given its non-intrusive nature, trenchless construction commonly results in more positive responses from clients, community members, and other stakeholders.

We have established strategic relationships with a range of specialist trenchless contractors and have an in-depth understanding of the commercial viability of the different systems available to the market.

This understanding is regularly applied by our Pre-Contracts Engineering team during tender processes, to offer clients potential value-adds through the implementation of trenchless technology.

TI have demonstrated experience in utilising trenchless construction methods, including:

Horizontal directional drilling

Auger boring

Micro tunnelling

Pipe jacking

Pipe bursting

Slip lining

We pride ourselves on our ability to work in greenfield and existing system environments, with work crews and specialist equipment tailored to meet customer and project requirements.
