STEERING SYSTEM

Our company employs advanced Vector Magnetics technologies to guarantee the highest standards of precision throughout all phases of HDD drilling operations.

The ParaTrack 2 guidance system, utilized in combination with the RivCross software suite and gyro instrumentation, enables highly accurate borehole tracking by integrating vector magnetic measurements with inertial data. This configuration ensures dependable trajectory control even within complex and demanding geological contexts.

In addition, our company is equipped:

• N. 3 sets of ParaTrack 2 systems

• N. 2 sets of Gyro North Seeker

• N.2 sets of Pressure Module System

• N.1 Tripod BTS unit

Each unit is supplied with a full set of the latest-generation accessories, allowing us to operate with complete autonomy and superior technological capability.

The implementation of Vector Magnetics’ PMR (Passive Magnetic Ranging) technology has further enabled the successful completion of extended crossings exceeding 3,000 meters in challenging terrains and environmentally sensitive areas.

Collectively, these systems provide exceptional accuracy, operational reliability, and comprehensive oversight for all drilling activities.
