Concrete pipe
Concrete pipe
(OP)
We are doing a preliminary study on trenchless installation of a 16 inch waterline. We are looking at various trenchless installation methods. The project site is contaminated with fuel/petroleum. Will there be a problem with corrosion of the concrete pipe in an area contaminated with fuel/petroleum? The concrete pipe will be installed using microtunneling methods.





RE: Concrete pipe
This sounds very strange however. Are you installing concrete pipe or steel pipe which is mortar lined and coated ? This is what in the US is called concrete cylinder pipe. In 16-inch size there are several other pipe material you might want to consider including Ductile Iron, and one or two others.

If there are no suspected problems, HPDE is a great material I've used in trench-less river crossings. I've also used it in my pipe-bursting sewer projects. No problems.
