Capabilities
With the purchase of Vermeer’s D33X44 directional drill machine, C & F Engineering capable of installing conduits,
ducts and piping by horizontal directional drill raging 50 mm to 600 mm in diameter with distances typical up to 200
meters in one pull. Longer distances and large diameters can be achieved but need to be considered on a case by case
basis. The purpose of this document is to provide guidance on how the HDD is likely to be undertaken until such time as
a specialist contractor is contacted, the contents of this report should be treated as Provisional because there are
several options that could be employed depending on the type and size of the drilling machine used and the preference
of the contractor for other issues.
Each horizontal directional drilling, job site has its own unique characteristics, depending on the soil/the surface
condition to be drill. The following method statement is intended to indicate the typical activities at a job site. For a
particular job or crossing, prospective clients should contact C & F Engineering and required method statement for
their requirements.
The schedule of horizontal directional drilling activities can normally be broken down into the following parts:
Learn how we can find potential obstacles and dangers of all kinds for increased accuracy,

An all-weather access to the entrance and exit sites for the HDD operation must be constructed and a level hard
standing area for the drill equipment prepared at each of these sites as follow:
A rectangular area has to be prepared that is approximately 10 meters long by approximately 5 meters wide.
Access to the entrance should be an all-weather road capable of withstanding heavy loaded transporters. The
hard stand should be either clay filling with a cover of late rite, wooden mats or steel plates.
The clean water (salt water is not allow) requirements should be met by either a reliable pumped supply or by
water trucks. If it is determined that the water supply is not sufficient to meet the need of a crossing, water
storage tank will be use store enough water to meet the requirement.
Pits will be excavated at the pipeline exit and entry points. The pits are to contain the borehole slurry. The must
be of sufficient capacity to accommodate the use slurry/cuttings mixture. Further disposal of the use Bentonite
during the operation must be possible using other means and should be arranged for together with the client.
The hard stand should be constructed in a similar manner to the exit. A similar access, as constructed for the
exit should be provided. A Slurry pit will be constructed to collect any Bentonite/slurry discharged from the drill
hole.
The survey team will place stake at the pipeline exit and entry points. The directional drilling unite is placed at the
exit where the drill will enter at exactly the correct location. The drill unit is then elevated at the rear so that the
entrance angle conforms to the drill profile drawing. The rig is the anchored in position. If necessary a 20 tons
excavator will also be used as an anchor for the drill rig. The drill operation begins by drilling a pilot hole using drill
bit, the drill head and the pressure injection of drill fluid. The drilling is carried out continuously in interval of 3.5
meters, equivalent to one length of drill pipe. Location of drill bit is monitored using the DCI locating system. An
electronic Transmitter in the drill head will sends information to the locator operator’s receiver. As each drill rod is
drilled in to the ground the locator operator take a reading from his equipment and inform the drill operator of the
location, pitch and roll the drill head. From this information the operator know the location of the drill head at all
times. The operator uses the information to maintain the preplanned path of the bore. The accuracy of the drilling is
verified by comparing the coordinates of the actual location of the drill bit against the plane drill profile. If these a
major difference between the actual and planned location of the drill bit, the operator is able to correct the actual
profile by pulling back to a correct position of the planned profile and begin re-drilling. Once the drill bit exits the
other end of the drill hole, the drill head is removed and a Reamer is attached to the drill string.
pipe, the pull head is connected to the drill string via Swivel. The swivel prevents the client’s pipe from rotation
during the pullback.
Prior the pullback, the client’s pipe, which has had a pull head welded on to it, has be prepared and hydrostatically
tested by the client in a single length. The length being equivalent to or greater that the length of the drilled hole.
The client’s pipe is the pulled back toward the exit area by the drill rig.
The Steel pipe installing accuracy by HDD is provided by the permanent electromagnetic location of the drill head.
Trench less directional drilling with P.D.E. Technology is the ideal procedure for areas with certain specific features:
Areas where open cut trenches are difficult and expensive (railways, highways, roads, water courses, clay
sand, other existing installations, runways etc.).
Heavily urbanized areas (buildings and underground installations, crossings etc.).
Areas which impose the protection of environment (protected parks, reservations, archaeological sites etc.)
PILOT DRILL
From the start pit, the remotely controlled drill head is advancing underground. The high pressure drilling
suspension from the rotating drill head does accomplish the pilot hole. This suspension (Water, Bentonite and
/or special additives) is dislocating the soil, larger spoils being pressed against the tunnel wall and finer particles
being transported along the tunnel with the drilling fluid to the start pit. (Pilot will maintain required depth from
the lowest invert of the last pipe).

The product (Steel pipe or HDPE or others) is attached directly behind the reamer. The drilling suspension
enables the installation to be carried out smoothly and without damaging the product. This drilling suspension
acts as a lubricant and is reducing friction in the tunnel.
SENSOR TEHNIQUE
The three-dimensional localization of the drill head is based on electromagnetic wave emission from a
transmitter mounted in the drill tool. A data receiver (with a data screen) above the ground is receiving the
signals send by the transmitter. So the
precise position of the drill head can be
located.

F5® Fluid Pressure Transmitter (FPT)
The DigiTrak® F5® Fluid Pressure Transmitter (FPT) is designed to provide instantaneous readings of the annular
drilling fluid pressure around the drill head during a pilot hole. The FPT incorporates all the functions of the F5 ® dual-
frequency transmitters and in addition is fitted with fluid pressure sensors. Although the mechanical design of the
transmitter and its electronics is new, its dimensions are the same as the standard DigiTrak ® transmitters. The only
requirement for using the FPTs is that there must be a fluid path from the annulus around the housing to the four fluid
pressure sensor ports located at the front of the FPT.
Advantages of the FPT include the following:
Real-time downhole mud pressure is continuously displayed at the receiver and on the remote display at the
drill.
Knowledge of downhole drilling fluid pressure can assist in preventing inadvertent returns and or damage to
surrounding structures.
Changes in the fluid pressure can indicate formation changes that may require modifications to the drilling fluid.
Fluid pressure data can be monitored and saved on the F5 ® receiver and uploaded via Bluetooth to a PC for
later analysis and reporting.
Frequencies F5Dp 19/12: 19.2 or 12 kHz and F5Dp 12/1.3: 12 or 1.3 kHz
