Directional Drilling

Directional drilling is a technique used to guide a drill bit along a planned path beneath the ground, rather than just drilling straight down. It allows operators to reach underground areas that are hard to access directly, such as around obstacles or underneath existing structures. Using specialized equipment and sensors, the drill’s direction can be carefully controlled and adjusted in real-time, enabling precise placement of pipes, cables, or wells. This method reduces surface disruption and increases efficiency, making it ideal for installing underground infrastructure in urban or environmentally sensitive locations.
