Many solutions exist to mitigate depth of cover issues or exposed pipelines; however, some are more efficient and cost-effective than others. Let’s compare two of the most common solutions for establishing adequate cover over pipelines: horizontal directional drilling and articulating concrete mats. What is Horizontal Directional Drilling? Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) is a trenchless method

Migration and habitat are critical considerations for pipeline design. With approximately 2.5 million miles of transmission pipelines crossing the U.S., it’s understandable that construction and maintenance activities could affect animal habitats from time to time. That’s why animal habitats and migration patterns are factored into the earliest planning and design stages for pipeline projects, right

With shifting coastlines, natural tides, storms, and constant traffic, it’s easy to see how subsea pipelines can be impacted over time. Storms can cause wave- and current-induced movements of nearshore sediments, which can affect the depth of burial and integrity of pipelines laid in waters less than 60 feet deep. Plus, vessels and Gulf traffic
