Steered drilling and sinkers are often located at greater depths and are therefore more difficult to detect. Especially in hydraulic engineering, road construction, and railway construction projects, understanding this underground infrastructure is essential to preventing risks and damage.
At TerraCarta, we specialize in locating, surveying, and documenting sinkers and steered drilling. Locating these structures is essential for projects in hydraulic engineering, road construction, and railway construction, where underground pipelines are often installed at great depths. Thanks to our advanced detection techniques and years of experience, we accurately map the exact location of this underground infrastructure.
When planning directed drilling, it is crucial to accurately map the location of existing cables and pipelines along the drill path. This prevents disruptions and damage to underground infrastructure. TerraCarta has extensive experience mapping directed drilling projects for clients such as ProRail, VolkerWessels, Waternet, and Stedin. With our expertise, we minimize risks and ensure that your project proceeds without delays.
In projects such as dredging or the installation of sheet piles, it is often critical to know the exact location of steered drilling and sinkers. TerraCarta offers comprehensive services to locate, survey, and document these structures. Our experience with these types of projects makes us the ideal partner for both contractors and Network operators.
We use advanced detection techniques such as ground-penetrating radar, radio detection, and test trenches to locate the top of the borehole. The material of the pipes plays an important role in determining the detection method. Radio detection is used for metal pipes, while ground-penetrating radar is used for plastic pipes, or a probe is installed for radio detection. When these methods are insufficient, we use gyroscopy to locate the pipe.
TerraCarta has developed a spray lance system that performs directed drilling to great depths with ease. This water-pressure-driven system makes it possible to accurately examine and map boreholes, even at great depths.
