PROFESSIONAL construction of
gas distribution networks

Fast and cost-efficient installation of underground gas pipes with Nodig technology

Well developed natural gas distribution networks play an important role in the success of the energy turnaround. In order for thegas transmission network to be able to transport and store sufficient quantities of fossil and increasingly renewable natural gas, high investments are required for maintaining and expanding the gas grid. Using trenchless technologies these expenses can be significantly reduced in an environmentally friendly way. Moreover, expansion can be accelerated without compromising supply quality and security.

Safe underground gas pipe laying

Underground gas pipe laying and even renewal with NODIG technology and even renewal means maximum safety according to the latest latest technical standards. This goes for any type of gas pipeline
  • Pipelines for feeding the natural gas produced worldwide into national gas networks
  • Construction of gas distribution networks with pressure lines for transport and distribution
  • Underground gas pipes for the storage of synthetic gas from surplus green electricity 
  • Gas service connections

Underground gas piping at A GLANCE

  • Gas piping along roads and under traffic and waterways, with short or long pipes made of all standard materials
  • Trenchless construction of underground gas pipes for service connections from the pit/keyhole to the building or directly into the supply room and vice versa
  • The minimally invasive keyhole technology has been developed especially for the serial installation and renewal of gas house connections. It really couldn‘t be more gentle and economical
  • Trenchless renewal of damaged gas pipelines and house connections by replacement with new pipes in the existing route (pipe bursting) for sustained leak prevention while simultaneously adapting the gas pipe capacity by 1–2 nominal widths
  • Maximum planning and technical safety of the gas piping while maintaining the latest regulations
  • Precise proof and documentation of position, function and tightness of the new underground gas pipes
