Rajiv Dummagudem LI – Pipeline Works

Earthwork excavation and laying of 3000 mm diameter Mild Steel (MS) pressure pipelines in Kothagudem.

Project Overview

Work order for heavy earthwork excavation, laying of massive 3000 mm (3.0 metre) diameter Mild Steel (MS) pipelines, specialized jointing/welding, hydrostatic pressure testing, and precision trench refilling executed as a crucial conduit of the Rajiv Dummagudem Lift Irrigation Scheme.

Executing pipeline works of 3000 mm diameter requires specialized heavy-lift rigging, laser-guided grade alignment, and stringent ultrasonic weld inspection to withstand massive hydrostatic conveyance heads delivering vital irrigation waters.

Key Deliverables & Scope

  • Deep earthwork trench excavation across challenging geotechnical strata
  • Precision crane rigging and lowering of 3000 mm dia MS pipes
  • Full-penetration circumferential butt welding and non-destructive joint inspection
  • Internal mortar lining / external anti-corrosive coating protection
  • Controlled layer-by-layer compacted trench backfilling and restoration
