Pipeline Locating

Advanced Pipeline Locating Solutions

Pinpoint Accuracy. Real-Time Results. Smarter Utility Planning.

 

Our advanced pipeline locating service uses a combination of high-tech tools and proven field practices to deliver unmatched accuracy in mapping underground pipelines. By combining a 512 Hz Transmitter Sonde, a low-density soft foam pig, and VIVAX vLoc3-Pro Receiver, we can confidently track and map even the most complex pipe paths—over long distances and with limited access points.

​

Why Accurate Pipeline Locating Matters:

Many utilities, especially smaller systems, rely on outdated or incomplete "as-builts" and GIS records. These maps often contain gaps or inaccuracies that can lead to costly surprises during excavation, planning, or leak detection.

​

Knowing the exact horizontal and vertical position of a pipeline is critical for:

● Construction – Prevent accidental damage during roadwork or utility installs

● Design & Planning – Avoid redesigns by accounting for all underground assets upfront

● Leak Detection – Focus inspections where they matter most

​

Key Benefits

● Accurate locating with limited access

● Real-time tracking of the pig’s position within the pipe

● Advanced GIS mapping and data deliverables

● Enhanced pipeline cleaning as a natural byproduct of the process

● A cost-efficient alternative to potholing with minimal impact on traffic flow.

​

This innovative approach minimizes downtime, reduces risk, and helps utilities make smarter, more informed decisions about their underground infrastructure.
