Horizontal Directional Drilling

The landing of submarine cable systems on beaches and the foreshore is often discouraged by permitting authorities due to the potential environmental impact associated with excavating the beachfront. As an alternative to trenching and in efforts to expedite permit timelines, INS offers Horizontal Directional Drilling services to submarine cable system owners.
