EasyDrill project in Selby

It has long been the policy at the Trenchless Group, to provide not only the highest quality tooling for the underground construction industry, but to provide also the training and backup that is needed to make it work successfully. This philosophy was shown recently on an EasyDrill FD10-G Mini HDD project. The works on Dyon Lane were originally planned to replace a main that had several bursts within the land of a local farmer. This main was to be replaced using open cut methods. It became apparent from the site visit that the works would have to be extended under and beyond the beck that runs through both fields. Morrison, the main contractor, having been tasked with increasing its innovations, made a request to client Yorkshire Water to see if they could use an EasyDrill FD10-G mini HDD system. This use would reduce the need to excavate across both fields. It also meant it would be possible to drill under the beck. The Trenchless Group was approached. The company owns and operates a varied selection of trenchless systems, so it was decided that the company’s EasyDrill FD10-G system, with capabilities of installing 100+ metre distances and up to 180 mm diameter pipe installations could achieve the installations together with offering a small site footprint. Designed as an attachment using a quick hitch for mini excavators, the EasyDrill has amazing and unrivalled thrust and pull back power for a drill of its size. With pit or surface launch capabilities, the small and robust machine seemed ideal for the project.
