overall tasks

Reconstruction of the Goleniów-Police gas pipeline (stage I) in the area of the Olszanka reserve and Roztoki Odrzańska required the construction of a new line of the gas pipeline in the form of a directional drilling under the bottom of the river and later connecting to the existing line. For this, an unveiling was required existing gas pipeline placed in complex ground conditions. To protect yourself against the possibility of failure or damage to the gas pipeline contractor of construction works introduced structural monitoring of the behavior of exposed sections of the existing gas pipeline.
