We locate buried utilities and obstructions before excavation, giving project teams better information to plan their work and reduce risks to existing infrastructure.
Reduce risk before work begins.
Underground utility locating identifies subsurface features without unnecessary exploratory excavation. The survey helps define work areas, organize field activities, and prevent damage, delays, and unexpected costs.
Key applications.
- Oil, gas, and water pipeline routes.
- Well flowlines.
- Electrical lines and communications networks.
- Areas planned for masts, manifolds, and civil structures.
- Site investigations and projects that require excavation.
A scope tailored to your project.
We serve industrial facilities, infrastructure, energy, and oil and gas projects, adapting each survey to site conditions and the client's technical requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
General guidance for planning work in areas that may contain buried utilities or obstructions. The survey scope is tailored to each site's conditions and project objectives.
What types of buried utilities and obstructions can you locate?
The survey can be used to locate buried oil, gas, and water pipelines, well flowlines, electrical installations, and communications networks, as well as other obstructions within a work area.
Does utility locating require excavation?
Our noninvasive approach identifies subsurface features and reduces the need for exploratory excavation. It gives teams better information to plan their work and reduce risks to existing infrastructure.
When should a utility locating survey be performed?
A survey is recommended before excavation, structural installation, foundation work, or work near existing utilities. It helps define work areas, organize field activities, and prevent damage, delays, and unexpected costs.
