HDD Consulting and Operational Support

Much of the cost overrun on an HDD project originates in the operation: poorly sized reaming sequences, under- or over-specified equipment, uncontrolled fluid consumption or lost time that no one measures. Operational support reviews these variables in the field and adjusts them before they become a problem.

JCR Specialized HDD Services provides technical support for the preparation and execution of HDD operations, with steel and HDPE pipe.

When is it needed?

  • Before mobilization, to review the execution plan, equipment and resources.
  • During execution, when actual performance departs from the plan.
  • On projects with multiple crossings or diameters where the activity sequence must be optimized.

  • Operational diagnosis.
  • Review of equipment, sequences, resources and risks.
