An infrastructure project such as the Seine-Nord Europe Canal can cross aerial or underground networks (water, gas, electricity, fiber optics, etc.) on its route. These must then be moved or deviated in order to allow the main works to be carried out.
TRAPIL – a company that transports petroleum products via pipeline* – began work at the end of last year to adapt its network in the Ytres area (62) . This involved restoring the pipeline to an underground configuration between the existing Canal du Nord tunnel and the Seine-Nord Europe Canal right-of-way. Nearly 600 meters of new pipeline were installed.
To do this, as a subcontractor of the company SPIECAPAG in charge of the work, the SME Coquart of Saint-Michel-sur-Ternoise located in the Hauts-de-France (62), participated in this delicate and spectacular operation.
*Pipe used for the long-distance transport of large quantities of fluids (petroleum, natural gas, etc.).
