Dublin Gas Pipeline, Dublin, Republic of Ireland
Site inspection and review of SI data and encountered ground conditions for seven 1.0m to 1.5m diameter tunnelled road/rail/river and canal crossings for a 900mm diameter, 18.6Km gas transmission pipeline. Tunnelling methods comprised; anger boring, manual pipejacking, (drill & blast, and hand excavation) and three microtunnels.  Produced report for claim relating to unforeseen ground conditions.

Site Investigation, design,
contract preparation and site supervision for  the Installation of a new 500m long effluent pipeline for a chemical plant.  The scheme was designed for directional drilling to minimise disruption to the plant and to prevent excavation on the adjacent roads.

Barbados South Coast Sewerage Scheme
Tender geotechnical interpretation of site investigation data for proposed sewer scheme involving 10Km of  250 to 700mm diameter microtunnelled excavation.  Advised on geotechnical risks and excavation rates for microtunnelling, and alternative proposal to use directional drilling for some of the alignment. 

Utility Installation, Chemical Plant
Site Investigation, design, CDM submissions,contract preparation and site supervision for  the Installation of underground services for a chemical waste processing facility.    Directional drilling was specified for the scheme to prevent disruption to the plant, and to avoid excavating contaminated ground.  in all 1000m of duct was installed for telecoms, gas, electric, water, and sewage.
