Ruskin has
developed, at the request of its major clients, the ability and expertise to
provide aerial pipeline crossing solutions when conventional methods are not
viable. The Oil & Gas pipeline industry required a safe, environmentally
sound and operational efficient option of installing pipelines at sensitive
water crossings. Ruskin responded to the Industry with the engineering and
construction solution that would guarantee pipeline construction need not be
stopped at sensitive water crossings. With planning, the aerial pipeline
structures can meet the requirements of the environmental agencies and be
constructed in a relatively tight time frame to meet the critical schedules
presented by the industry in the short construction season. The best part of
the aerial pipeline option is that it can be offered to a client as a
guaranteed solution with a fixed price and schedule.
In many instances the aerial
pipeline structures become multi purpose structures. Ruskin can provide vehicle
or ATV bridges incorporated with the primary pipeline purpose. This multi
tasking of the structure allows for a greater cost benefit, as well as the
opportunity of collecting a larger user group for cost sharing. Another benefit
of the aerial crossing system is that expansion can be engineered into the
structure at a relatively low cost for future development.
Working with Industry and the
applicable agencies, aerial pipeline construction has proven to be a solid,
cost effective and environmentally accepted alternative.
