Advantages of Directional Boring

Directional boring or horizontal directional drilling is a way to get utilities from one point to another without destroying the existing ground or obstacles that are in between the two points.

Horizontal directional drilling goes above and beyond traditional trenching; connecting utilities and services in places that traditional trenching is impossible.

Directional boring is mainly used for making crossings under rivers, roads, and existing structures, with the purpose of installing pipes and conduits to transport different types of fluids and materials.

The HDD technique has the less construction and restoration cost of new water and wastewater pipes and for rehabilitation of failing pipes in urban areas where excavation is not required or impossible.
