The 30-inch turnkey project in Brooklyn’s Gowanus Canal challenged what we thought was possible. There were several times we wondered, can it be done? There was nothing conventional about this project. The drawings showed a pipe configuration I had never seen.
After a previously installed liner failed, UV CIPP proved an ideal solution to rehabilitate a leaking 36-inch storm drain under a heavily trafficked road at a manufacturing facility in New Jersey. Interestingly, the leaking stormwater drainpipe had been lined a few years prior.
Eversource Engineers analyze PPM’s CIPL for a capstone project to rehabilitate a leaking bridge pipeline. Read about the role of trenchless technologies in Eversource’s portfolio of solutions for improving safety, reliability, repairing leaks and reducing fugitive emissions.
Steel gas mains come in a variety of specifics requiring a slightly different approach for reconditioning. A heightened level of awareness needs to be addressed in these three areas before the lining process begins.
