Do we need slurry and technological supervision? man and technological supervision? If so, when do we need it?
The recent development of HDD directional drilling technology has increased the scale of projects. Both, the distances at which we work and the pipeline diameters have increased. We also already execute projects in geological conditions that were inaccessible for HDD. Does the companies‘ challenge awareness keep up the pace with the technological acceleration and allow the works to be executed independently without the slurry supervision?
