HydroVac

HydroVac excavation uses pressurized water and a vacuum system to safely expose buried utilities, pipelines, and structures without the risk of mechanical damage. MATCOR deploys hydrovac equipment for precise, non-destructive excavation in situations where conventional digging methods would create unacceptable risk to existing infrastructure.

HydroVac is particularly valuable for test station installations, anode connections, and expose-and-inspect work along active pipeline right-of-ways.

Typical applications include:

  • Safe excavation near existing utilities and pipelines
  • Pipeline exposure for coating inspection and CP connections
  • Test station and bond wire excavation and installation
  • Slot trenching in congested or sensitive areas
  • Soil removal in confined or restricted access locations
