Tunneling Services

The Scott Wilson Tunnelling team includes highly qualified and experienced engineers providing an international service that covers all aspects of tunnelling from preliminary planning and feasibility through detailed design to supervision and commissioning of projects. Our services also include project verification and independent checking, technical advice to banks and lenders, risk assessments, expert witness and contractual claims assessment.

The team is experienced in a variety of forms of procurement including Design and Build, working either for clients preparing documentation or for contractors preparing tender and detail designs. Alternatively we have provided engineer’s design for pricing by contractors and have also been involved in teams working under partnering/framework arrangements.

Within Central and Eastern Europe there has been a rapid development of trenchless technologies in recent years. Since 1998 when the first sewer collector in Toruń, Poland was constructed using the micro-tunnelling method, many investors have decided to use this method along with horizontal directional drilling for the construction of pipelines forming part of sewer, water supply, telecommunications, oil and gas supply networks. Our Kraków based team can provide all kinds of design an supervision services associated with trenchless technologies.
