Horizontal Directional Drilling Services
FPSA offers professional horizontal directional drilling services for fibre optic cable installations, electricity cables and water pipes in a variety of different types of terrain. For the process to work, we make use of surface-launched rigs. This allows us to lay lengths of HDPE piping with minimal interruption to the surrounding terrain.

How Horizontal Directional Drilling Works
Horizontal directional drilling is an approach to boring that is commonly used for the installation of fibre optic cables, as well as conduits and pipes.
It allows these utilities to be installed without the need for a trench, in a shallow curve in path created by the bore.
This approach is effective, particularly where the disturbance of surrounding areas, such as driveways, paving or architecture, is concerned.
The Benefits of Our Horizontal Directional Drilling Services
Minimal Disturbance to Surrounding Areas
Horizontal directional drilling can be employed in areas with nearby infrastructure since it causes minimal disturbance to surrounding areas. This means that, even in tight spaces, that it won’t cause damage to nearby terrain or paving.
Minimal Need for Site Restoration
Because it causes minimal disturbance and surrounding damage, horizontal directional drilling can be done without having stop any operations in surrounding areas.
Continuation of Normal Operations
Also because of minimal disturbance to surrounding areas, horizontal directional drilling causes minimal damage. This in turn means that less time, money and effort needs to be invested into restoring surrounding infrastructure and terrain.
A Trenchless Solution
The trenchless solution offered by horizontal directional drilling means that it provides a solution for laying fibre cables electricity cables and water pipes with far fewer engineering costs.
This also allows cables to be laid even when challenged by rural, urban, or geographical factors that would otherwise complicate the process.
From pristine gardens to highways, roads, railways and other existing, buried infrastructure, horizontal directional drilling, by providing a trenchless method of laying cables and other utilities, meets these challenges with minimal disturbance.
