Pipebursting Information

Cast Iron, Clay, Concrete, and other fracturable Gas, Water, Sewer, and Production Pipelines

Over 6,000 Miles in use
Cities all across North America are using Pipebursting to maintain or improve their pipeline systems. The Pipebursting process was developed and patented by British Gas to solve their own replacement needs and, since then, over 6,000 miles of pipe - both mainlines and service lateral - have been replaced worldwide using the technology.
Significant Cost Savings
Without doubt, Pipebursting is one of the most economical ways to replace a buried pipeline. The direct costs are generally lower than the traditional dig-and-replace method, but when time, disruption, and restoration costs are added in, Pipebursting is far less expensive. A WIDE CHOICE OF REPLACEMENT MATERIALS
With Pipebursting, you have a wide choice of replacement materials, Polyethylene, PVC, glass fiber, and many types of metal pipe have been used successfully. Regardless of the material you choose, you will have the assurances that it has been manufactured to strict national standards such as AGA, API, ASTM, and AWWA. Your new pipeline will have known physical properties, and an established service life. With Pipebursting, you do not have to worry about field chemistry or the stress of reducing or reshaping pipe. You get the material that suits you best, not the limitations of the technology.

The cost of upsizing over 6,000 feet of 15-inch and 18-inch pipe to 24-inch polyethylene in Colorado was one million dollars than dig-and-replace.
