When should I use Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) for my underground cable project?

2025-08-14

Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is the preferred method for projects where traditional trenching is not feasible or desirable. You should consider using HDD when:

  • Crossing under major obstacles like rivers, lakes, busy roads, or railway tracks.

  • Working in environmentally sensitive areas, such as wetlands or nature reserves.

  • Minimizing disruption to existing landscapes, traffic, and urban infrastructure is a priority.

  • The project requires a precise, subsurface bore path to avoid other underground utilities.
