Boring under existing piping
Boring under existing piping
(OP)
I need some suggestions............
I've got an existing refinery that some very old and very wide below grade pipe trenches.
I've got to route some new utility (power) under them (+/- 3'-0" below bottom of trench) In most areas, directional drilling will work.
In one area, I have no outlet access for directional drilling, so it looks like we're stuck hand digging (about 80', 3'-0"deep) around a very congested pipe area.
Any experience with trenching equipment that can be pushed through wet mud/sand that deep and that long?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had seen some "ground freezing" where a cement grout was injected to fix shifting soils for removal.
Just didn't occur to me for this one.
