Trenchless Pipeline Installation

Pipelines cross things — highways, county roads, railroads, creeks, and other pipelines — and every crossing that cannot be open-cut belongs to a pipeline boring contractor. Trinity Boring Solutions installs cased and uncased pipeline crossings across Oklahoma and Texas for pipeline contractors, operators, and midstream companies.

Our crews bore steel casing and pull carrier pipe for gathering lines, distribution mains, and product lines, working to the crossing drawings and the operator’s construction standards.

What Trenchless Services Do We Offer?

HDD crossings for steel and HDPE pipelines, auger-bored steel casings under roads and rail, and vacuum potholing to verify existing line depths before the bore. Casing diameters from 6 inches through large-bore, with spacers, end seals, and test heads installed to specification.

Why Go Trenchless for Pipeline Crossings?

Permit agencies require it: ODOT, TxDOT, counties, and railroads do not allow open cuts through their pavement or track. Beyond compliance, a bored crossing keeps traffic moving, avoids pavement restoration, and gets inspected once instead of maintained forever.

What Experience & Capability Do We Bring?

Directional boring is what we do — not a sideline to open-cut work. Vermeer rigs sized for road crossings through long engineered shots, experienced locate-and-pothole practice in congested corridors, and an estimating desk that reads pipeline alignment sheets daily.

Who Do We Work With?

Pipeline and midstream contractors, gas distribution operators, municipal utilities, and civil primes. Crossings are quoted per alignment sheet with casing, carrier, and site-specific requirements itemized. Call (405) 409-7423 or email [email protected].

Pipeline Boring Contractor FAQs

What is the difference between auger boring and HDD for pipelines?

Auger boring jacks steel casing on precise line and grade — ideal under rail and short road crossings. HDD drills a steerable path for longer or deeper crossings and pulls the pipe back through. The crossing design usually names the method.

Can you bore a creek or river crossing for a pipeline?

Yes. Waterway crossings are engineered HDD shots with entry and exit set back from the banks and depth of cover per the crossing design and permits.

Do you install casing spacers and end seals?

Yes — spacers, end seals, vents, and test connections are installed per the operator’s casing standard on every cased crossing.

How do I get a crossing priced?

Send the alignment sheet or plan-and-profile for the crossing. Pricing comes back itemized, usually within one business day.
