How directional drilling works?

With the use of electronic sensors within the drill head (sonde), the drill head is accurately tracked and any necessary alignment changes to the bore can easily be made. Using a walk-over or down-hole location system, our drilling technicians can collect data from the battery-operated sonde system. This data includes detailed information on the depth, location, direction, and angle of the drill. Using this data, the operator is able to correctly align the drill along its route and also avoid any existing buried utilities.

We supply and/or pull the conduits into the bore ready for our clients to connect immediately after our completion.
