ABOUT BRM DRILL
Great connections
begin below ground.
We are a Brazilian company specializing in Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) and trenchless methods.
We support underground infrastructure projects with an approach based on the conditions of each installation: the alignment, ground, existing utilities and surface conditions.
From identifying the connection needed to defining its route, the first step is understanding your project.

Understand the method and find out which information helps us begin assessing your project.
Talk to usWhat is Horizontal Directional Drilling?
HDD is a technique for installing pipes and conduits along a guided underground route. The process generally involves a pilot bore, reaming when required and pulling the pipe through, using localized access points.
How does HDD relate to trenchless methods?
Trenchless methods are underground infrastructure techniques that reduce the need for continuous trenches. HDD is one of these techniques. The choice of method depends on the conditions and requirements of the project.
Does the method eliminate all excavation?
Entry and exit points, access pits, utility verification and other localized interventions may be required. The benefit is reducing trench excavation along the route, depending on the application.
Can HDD be used in any ground conditions?
Feasibility depends on the soil, presence of rock, groundwater level, existing utilities, alignment geometry and access, among other factors. These conditions must be assessed before determining the method and execution.
What information helps prepare a quotation?
Provide the installation location, purpose of the utility, estimated length, pipe material and diameter if known, and your desired schedule. Drawings, surveys and ground information can be shared later when speaking with BRM DRILL.
Which regions does BRM DRILL serve?
We serve projects throughout Brazil. Contact us to discuss the location, installation conditions and availability for your project.
