•Case Study: HDD & HDPE Solve Recurring Main Line Failure

Jenks, OK – Vance Giblet has been drilling high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe under roads, rivers and creeks since the late 1970's. So when he heard that the City of Jenks Oklahoma had a water line that had been washed out by Polecat Creek, he knew exactly what to do.

Jenks is a suburb of Tulsa and is the second fastest growing city in the State of Oklahoma. The city has a busy schedule keeping up with its rapid growth so when one of its mainlines that crosses a creek was washed out and fractured for the fourth time in 18 years, they decided to research a better fix. That is when they added HDPE and horizontal directional drilling (HDD) to the bid specification.
