PIPELINE
PIPELINE INDUSTRY CHALLENGES
Sterling crews have worked on powerline sites of every size and scope, from routine substation maintenance and line upgrades to crossing rivers with high-voltage transmission lines. Our team understands high-stakes environmental obstacles and the hazards of inclement weather — and has the expertise to help. Explore the critical role of site access mats and how they can improve the efficiency and safety of your next project.
Extreme Weather
Emergency maintenance doesn’t wait for fair weather. TerraLam mats can simplify access to remote pipeline sites, even in muddy, icy, or by other difficult conditions.
Heavy Equipment
Cranes and other equipment can compact soil and damage the ground during pipeline jobs. Sterling’s pipeline construction mats are designed to withstand the weight – saving restoration costs.
Remote Sites
Pipeline maintenance sites are likely to be far from roads. Sterling will work with you to design the right access solution and build the access roads you need to reach the farthest sites with the least damage to the ground.
Farmland
Pipelines often run through farmland, which means that access roads can cause significant crop loss and soil compaction. Sterling routes temporary roads to minimize this damage and compaction, reducing restoration costs and more.
