Tackling Dual Crossings

2,796 feet of pipe needed to be installed in an urban area for a midstream operator. The project involved two horizontal directional drilling (HDD) crossings, one under the Brazos River and the other under Interstate 10.

The project presented two primary challenges.

Superintendent: Carlton Loftin

Location: Katy, TX

 

Length: 2,796 feet

 

1. Complex Geological Conditions

The Brazos River required precise execution and monitoring, as there were layers of sand and gravel that could impact operations.

2. Dual-Crossing Logistics

Completing both a major river crossing and a large interstate crossing consecutively required meticulous planning to minimize potential delays.

MAXX HDD successfully completed both crossings with a DD-440 rig, streamlining operations and staying on schedule.
