During the summer of 2013, Gorgeous Media was commissioned to cover O'Connor Utilities Ltd directional drilling project. A replacement pipe was needed to carry mains electricity cables under the River Wyre to Fleetwood. It was drilled 25 meters under the river and was 1440 metres long. Just think about the logistics of this project. It was amazing to watch the process - this film goes some way to explain how the pipe is pulled into place.
