HDD Service
We specialize in providing quality Horizontal Directional Drilling services to a variety of markets, including Oil and Gas Transmission, Cathodic Protection, Water and Sewer.
Oil & Gas
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.
Water/Sewer
Challenger Drilling, Inc. actively participates in the installation of new water and sewer lines using HDD processes, specializing in “On-Grade” placement of gravity sewer lines.
