Trenching

Open-cut excavation for new pipeline routes

Trenching

What Trenching involves

Trenching creates the controlled excavation in which a new pipeline is installed. The work starts from approved alignment and depth requirements and continues through excavation, spoil management, trench preparation and readiness checks before lowering.

How we support the work

Our site team coordinates manpower, operators, access and equipment around the approved client scope. Execution is sequenced so each work front is ready for the next pipeline activity with minimal avoidable delay.

Typical scope

  • Route marking and excavation planning
  • Machine and manual excavation as site conditions require
  • Depth, width and gradient control
  • Shoring / battering support where required
  • Spoil segregation for safe backfilling
  • Trench-bed preparation before pipe lowering

Common applications

  • City gas distribution lines
  • Cross-country pipeline stretches
  • Industrial utility corridors
  • Repair, replacement and extension works
