Overview

We are excited to invite you to a webinar where we present our PD55 umbrella pipe system - a exceptional solution for tunnel and rock excavation projects.

Originally developed in Stockholm, Sweden, by innovative contractors during the Sikla project, this system was designed as a smarter alternative to traditional umbrella pipe systems commonly used in other parts of Europe and worldwide.

In the Nordic market, where work environment, high labor costs, and tight construction schedules are key challenges, existing systems have proven insufficient. Our new solution addresses these issues with a simpler, more automated setup that reduces both preparation and installation time by up to 50% compared to conventional methods.

What you'll learn:

During the webinar, you will gain valuable insights into:

• The fundamentals and advantages of Drillpipe PD55
• Practical application of the umbrella pipe system
• Presentation of reference projects

Agenda

The webinar is divided into two parts:

• Presentation (45 minutes): Introduction to the system, technology, and reference cases
• Q&A Session (15 minutes): An opportunity to ask questions directly to our speakers

Please note: The entire webinar will be held in English.
