Water

One of the most common interruptions to water supply is damaged pipeline by excavation work. In certain case, the distribution can cause water disruption to the entire town. Water companies will receive many complaints which put them in the news limelight for a negative cause.

How can our service help?

The technology that we use to detect are using both electromagnetic for ferrous material and ground penetrating radar for non-ferrous material.
We help reduce the risk of accidental damage by contractor so that water pipes are detect and locate properly and accurately.

We also work closely with many contractors who carries out pipe laying works, pipe jacking works, open excavation works and pipe maintenance work.

Sewerage

Reduce the risk of damaged sewer line which can cause environmental impact such as river pollution.

There are also many cases of missing manhole covers due to premixed or covered by soil/dirt.

How can our service help?

The risk of damaged sewerline can be eliminated by our expert using our radiodetection equipment combine with flexitrace or sonde which can
– Reduce risk of accidental damaged by excavation, HDD or pipe jacking
– Reduce project cost by locating these services and avoid disruption cost
– Reduce time of project where stop work is avoidable

Manhole Cover Detection Using Metal Detector or Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)

We work closely with sewerage contractors which carries out sewer pipe laying, pipe jacking works, open excavation works and pipe maintenance works.

Telecommunication

As the world progressing into the 5G era, more and more fiberoptic cables are being laid throughout the country. The glass made cable has a non-metallic material which can be troublesome to detect using conventional locating method.

Fiber cable cut incidents by third party contractors have become one of the major cause of internet service down especially in urban areas where fiber cables are laid underground.

High tech companies, multi-national banks, factories, educational institutions and home owners are highly depend with the internet and this situation causes costly impact especially to the business customers.

The cost to repair the cables might be marginal compared to the indirect downtime cost which might be exorbitant.

How can our service help?

As we all know, fiberoptic cables are a non-metallic cable which could not be detected by using an electromagnetic locator.

In view of this, our dedicated team will use a flexitrace, a fiberglass rod with copper insert. This flexitrace will then be inserted inside an empty duct. Once this is done, the copper will be energized with AC current which creates the electromagnetic field which will then be detected by using the locator. This method will give accurate alignment of the telecommunication ducting.

We help many contractors which carryout horizontal direct drilling (HDD) works, open excavation works, telecom pole installation, micro trenching works and manhole installation works.

We also work to locate missing manhole cover by using metal detector and ground penetrating radar or GPR

Construction

We help to remove the uncertainty when carryout excavation works. By accurately locate and map the underground utilities route and depth, contractors can safely excavate without the risk of damaging any utilities.

How can our service help?

The risk of damaged underground utilities can be eliminated by our expert using our radiodetection equipment combine with ground penetrating radar and flexitrace which can:
– Reduce risk of accidental damaged by excavation, HDD or pipe jacking
– Reduce project cost by locating these services and avoid disruption cost
– Reduce time of project where stop work is avoidable
– Reduce public complaints from utility disruption and outages
– Avoid lawsuits from service providers

Power

As new development soars, the number of cables being laid each day is increasing day by day especially in urban area.

The need to locate and map these cables are necessary to avoid damaged by excavation or piling works.

A damaged to power line is the last thing contractors wants to hear. This will cause not only the repair cost, but the indirect cost which will be the downtime to industries production and other associated costs.

How can our service help?

We help to propose the corridor for new cables to be installed. This will assist contractors to install and lay their cables safely. The new installed cables will then be map in an as-built drawings for record purpose.

All cables will be differentiated with the voltage they carry such as low voltage, medium voltage or high voltage cables.

Oil & Gas

Oil and gas pipelines are usually being laid underground and the backbone of transporting and distributing networks of natural gas and oil.

Usually these oil and gas pipes are laid within their reserved corridor. However, the distribution networks pipes are laid along road reserved together with other utilities.

This poses a high risk of accidental damaged due to excavation.

How can our service help?

The risk of damaged oil and gas pipes can be eliminated by our expert using our radiodetection equipment combine with ground penetrating radar and flexitrace which can:
– Reduce risk of accidental damaged by excavation, HDD or pipe jacking
– Reduce project cost by locating these services and avoid disruption cost
– Reduce time of project where stop work is avoidable

Service Prodvide & Asset Owner

There is no surprise that some asset owners do not have the record of their underground utility assets. Due of this, they would require UMAP to be compiled in GIS format for their future records and planning purposes.

How can our service help?

We help reduce the risk of accidental damage by contractor so that assets are located and detected accurately. These data are then presented to the asset owners in CAD and GIS format for their planning and safekeeping

Engineering Consultants

Planning for a new development without the underground utility data would invite a cost overrun, project delay or even worst project failure.

How can our service help?

We help to detect and locate underground utilities so that consultants can have this information for their planning purpose. This will save time and cost for their clients for any untoward incidents.
