There are several benefits to HDD drilling, some of these include:
- Lower costs and increased productivity when compared to traditional trench drilling.
- There is substantially less noise and pollution from HDD drilling.
- Drilling below an obstacle decreases surface disruption.
- HDD drilling minimizes above-ground construction intrusions.
- Adverse weather conditional generally do not affect progress.
- Water pumping from trenches is no longer necessary.
