RIVER-ACTIVITY HISTORY EVALUATION CRITICAL IN HORIZONTALLY DRILLED CROSSING DESIGN

Thorough evaluation of a river's activity and historical movement, especially through preconstruction surveys, will enhance chances for a successful horizontally drilled pipeline river crossing. The first article in this two part series examined the installation process and how its advantages and limitations affect crossing design. This conclusion explores the effect of river activity on design, how preconstruction survey should be conducted to define future river movement, and how design and installation procedures might be improved.
