A Complete Rig System for HDD Drilling Work

LANGFANG, China - May 11, 2014 - PRLog -- What is HDD drilling?

HDD Drilling is short for the phase of Horizontal Directional Drilling and also regarded in some places as directional boring. This technology has a wide range of application in many occasions especially for laying pipelines for electricity, water pipe, or other pipe for conveying materials underground. Comparing with evacuation on ground, this method can make less destruction to the existing road or scenes, while cost is much lower.
