01Overview

Energy infrastructure, laid with care.

Gas distribution networks run beneath the same streets as everything else. Installing them safely means knowing what is already in the ground and choosing the least disruptive way through it.

Acuity StoneDrill is currently executing gas infrastructure work for THINK Gas through M/s Five Star Engineers.

Our role combines trenchless crossings with field execution — so gas networks reach the places they need to, with the surface disturbed as little as possible.

02Process

How the work runs.

  1. 01

    Survey & locating

    Existing services identified along the proposed pipeline route.

  2. 02

    Method selection

    Trenchless or open-cut chosen per section to suit the ground and site.

  3. 03

    Installation

    Pipe installed by HDD crossing or route works as planned.

  4. 04

    Testing

    Installed sections checked and tested as specified by the client.

  5. 05

    Restoration

    Pits and working areas reinstated, records handed over.

03Applications

Where it is used.

  • 01

    Distribution networks

    Underground pipe installation for gas distribution networks.

  • 02

    Road crossings

    Trenchless crossings beneath roads, junctions and drains.

  • 03

    Congested corridors

    Routes past existing telecom, power and water services.

  • 04

    Service connections

    Underground works associated with network extensions.

04Execution methodology

Controlled from start to finish.

Services awareness
Existing utilities located and protected before and during works.
Pipe handling
Pipe stored, handled and installed to protect its integrity.
Client specifications
Work executed to the client’s standards, drawings and procedures.
Supervision
Field supervision through every stage of installation.

07FAQ

Questions, answered.

Acuity StoneDrill is currently executing gas infrastructure work for THINK Gas through M/s Five Star Engineers. Detailed project information will be published as it is finalised.

Yes. HDD is widely used to install gas distribution pipes beneath roads, drains and other obstacles, subject to design, ground conditions and the network owner’s specifications.

Work is executed to the specifications, drawings and procedures set by the client and network owner for each project.
