Advantages
SpiderPlow equipment is the world’s most technologically advanced cable and pipe installation system.
Compared to traditional trenching and plowing technologies, SpiderPlow offers significant advantages:
- Very cost effective compared to traditional methods – efficiencies are achieved through:
- speed of application
- reduced right-of-way preparation
- minimal work-area reclamation
- Environmentally superior – anchor/winch configuration minimizes ground disturbance, pre-ripping and remediation and is therefore much less invasive than traditional plowing and trenching
- Depth – can easily achieve depth of 2.5 meters required for oil & gas applications and greater than 2.5 meters with soil stripping
- Consistent depth application – plow design allows SpiderPlow to achieve consistent depth in undulating terrain
- Pipe diameter
- plows up to 12” diameter flexible pipe
- pulls up to 20” diameter flexible and rigid pipe
- Safety – Intrinsically safe design and small crew required to operate the equipment
- Adaptability - easily overcomes varied terrain and obstacles
- Single pass - pipe is installed in a single pass, whereas conventional plowing systems may require several passes
