The process of building new installations takes place in subsequent stages.
The drilling rig is installed in the starting well.
A pilot drilling is performed towards the ending well.
Pilot drilling is completed when the drill head reaches the final well. Then, using the crown head, a hole is made in the end well through which the pipe will be installed.
The machine is converted into a reaming head to which the first pipe segment is attached. Along with the return of the drill rods into the starting well, subsequent segments of the installed pipe are assembled. Pipe segments are joined using a specialized clamping device.
The process of retracting the head, along with building the pipe from successive segments, is carried out until the head reaches the starting well.
The construction of a new installation is completed when the drilling head reaches the starting well.
