Brownline's Chris Frisch (Operations Manager) and Mohammed Al-Wazir (Project Manager), were featured in Trenchless Technology Magazine. The article covers the HDD intersect under the Red River in early 2023 in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
The pilot bore took place at the height of Canadian winter, with extremely cold temperatures between -25°C and -35°C (-13°F to -31°F). Besides that, the Red River is known to be very difficult for HDD crossings due to the mixed formations of clay, silt, sand and sandstone. Despite this, our Drillguide GST was successful in leading the drill along the planned trajectory with the highest accuracy.
