Oil & Gas Transmission

Domestic Onshore Oil & Gas Exploration and Production is a thriving industry in the United States. As American dependency on foreign oil rises, the need for domestic oil & gas reserves increases. Domestic oil companies are drilling new oil & gas wells at a record pace, and the need to bring this commodity to market requires the installation of oil & gas transmission pipelines. Challenger Drilling, Inc. operates HDD equipment for the installation of these oil & gas pipelines, whether placing a line to connect a newly completed wellhead to a gathering line, or participating in a cross-country supply line project.

Above Ground Storage Tank (AST) & Pipeline Cathodic Protection

The safe storage and transmission of petroleum products is an essential part of the overall oil & gas industry. Environmental concerns drive the need for effective cathodic protection systems to prevent leakage from AST’s and pipelines caused by corrosion. Challenger Drilling, Inc. utilizes HDD equipment to install reference cells and/or impressed current anode bed systems around and under existing AST’s and pipelines, without the need for shutting down pipeline operations or removing stored product from AST’s.
