Pipeline Engineering Project
Our team led the design and construction of a 130 km crude oil pipeline across challenging terrain. We handled route optimization, hydraulic design, and integrity management systems, ensuring safe and efficient product transport.
The scope also included pump station construction, SCADA system integration, and regulatory compliance in accordance with Canadian standards.
The Challenge
The terrain presented issues like permafrost zones, environmental protection areas, and high-pressure segments. Additional coordination was needed with multiple stakeholders and indigenous communities.
- Complex terrain requiring adaptive routing
- Environmental sensitivity zones and permitting
- Multi-jurisdictional coordination
Our Solution
We used LIDAR and GIS for route planning, partnered with local environmental agencies, and employed horizontal directional drilling (HDD) under water bodies to reduce impact. Stakeholder engagement was a continuous process.
- High-resolution route planning and 3D modeling
- Low-impact HDD and trenchless technologies
- Transparent stakeholder communication
