Pringle Hill Pipejack Achievement

Tagged under

The Company is pleased to announce that the Pringle Hill Pipejack on the Northern Network Alliance (NNA) Pipeline has been successfully completed.

This is a significant achievement and at approximately 1050m the 2100mm ID pipejack in the longest in the Southern Hemisphere. The only longer pipejacks are in Europe and do not include a significant vertical curve and a 60 metre climb from the launch position to the final destination. A total of 10 interjacking stations were deployed on the alignment and the tunnelling works were completed 5 weeks ahead of programme.

Congratulations to the Pringle Hill tunnelling team on another successful completion.
