How HDD Works

The Horizontal Directional Drilling Process

HDD is a trenchless method for installing underground utilities with minimal surface disruption. Here's how the process works from pilot bore to product pullback.

Three phases of HDD: Pilot Hole, Preream, and Pullback
Phase 1

Pilot Bore

A guided drill head creates a small-diameter pilot hole along a precisely planned path beneath obstacles.

Phase 2

Pre-Ream

The pilot hole is enlarged using a reamer to the required diameter for the product pipe or conduit.

Phase 3

Pullback

The product pipe or conduit is attached to the reamer and pulled back through the enlarged borehole.
