Horizontal Drilling in Valdosta: what gets installed
Horizontal drilling for any line that has to cross something it cannot cut through: a street, a slab, a canal, a stand of trees. Entry pit, exit pit, nothing opened in between.
Valdosta is south Georgia sand with Moody Air Force Base, I-75 and the rail lines as the crossings; pits need dewatering more than bores need rock bits.
How a bore in Valdosta is done
On a typical Valdosta job the crew sets an entry pit on one side of the obstruction and an exit pit on the other, confirms the 811 marks, potholes every crossing utility, and drills the pilot bore with a walkover locator reading the head at every rod. The hole is reamed, the line is pulled in, the drilling fluid is recovered with a vac truck, and the pits are restored the same day on most small jobs.
