Condition Assessment is not a single activity but rather a process whereby multiple technologies and skills need to be applied selectively and sequentially, resulting in an informed conclusion being reached as to the condition of any pipeline, its components or what lies beneath any surface.
Installable in any type of environment and using only the latest in lining technologies. ORSCO is a world leader in pipe rehabilitation solutions.
NuDrain can be used in a wide variety of systems including mains, horizontal laterals, vertical stacks, roof drains as well as sanitary drain, waste and vent systems. The thin epoxy liner installed to the pipes interior seals and protects the system from further deterioration, dramatically extending the life of the piping system.
Pressurised Water Systems
NuLine corrosion control coating restores aged, corroded pipe systems to a “like new” condition while leaving the pipes in place, avoiding the expense and disruption of pipe replacement. The epoxy coating is applied to the pipes’ interior, which seals and protects the system from further deterioration and dramatically extends the system’s life.
NuFlow’s NuCure Large Diameter UV Point Repair system is modernizing trenchless pipe repair to help contractors and municipalities maintain a reliable sewer infrastructure. UV Point repair is an efficient and accurate way to repair the pipe for a long-lasting alternative with minimal service disruption. Ideal for municipal, industrial, and commercial sewer and storm drains, the innovative process utilizes NuFlow’s NuCure Cold Cure UV technology

Condition Assessment is not a single activity but rather a process whereby multiple technologies and skills need to be applied selectively and sequentially, resulting in an informed conclusion being reached as to the condition of any pipeline, its components or what lies beneath any surface.
Pipeline LiDAR scanning in conjunction with gyroscopic alignment provides a fully mapped, internal 3D model of a lineal underground structure — and an accurate 3D profile of the internal pipeline fabric for superior identification and measurement of internal defects.

Installable in any type of environment and using only the latest in lining technologies. ORSCO is a world leader in pipe rehabilitation solutions — small construction pits or chambers are adequate for introducing the liner into the existing pressure pipeline.
Rehabilitation of pressurised water pipeline infrastructure — water mains, fire lines and forced mains. ASOE products are certified for use with potable water.
Rehabilitation of high-pressure gas pipelines through a minimally intrusive approach — a rope winch moves the liner from one space-saving pit to the next.
An exceptionally resilient TPU inner layer acts as a corrosion barrier — restoring existing steel pipelines and preventing future damage.
A complete analysis of the condition of all pipeline infrastructure — active included — to support defensible asset investment decisions.
Municipalities & contractors require the ability to monitor flow and pressure in pipelines to account for usage or losses.
A quick look into pipelines, manholes and tanks — HD zoom camera on a 7 m carbon fibre pole with 150 m zoom capability.
Used to identify and verify unknown utilities — so what is marked on the drawings is exactly what is underground.
