WASK AquaStop Keeps the Water Flowing in Thurso, Scotland
The Thurso Pipeline Valve Replacement Project involved upgrading 11.7km of water pipe from Latheron to Lybster in the Scottish Highlands.
As part of our comprehensive testing and development programme, we are pleased to announce that our WASK Teeset drilling machine has successfully passed a third party evaluation using 100% Hydrogen.
Teeset has been the pre-eminent method of safely drilling gas mains pipes up to 2 bar/12” for over 40 years and this latest development is aligned with the UK’s transition to Hydrogen as a replacement for natural gas (Methane) in the Gas network.
For Britain to meet the challenge of climate change, we need to replace the carbon-emitting natural gas that 85% of our homes rely upon for heating, hot water and cooking.
