Our hydrovac trucks cut soil with pressurized water and vacuum it into a debris tank, so you can expose a pipeline, a cable or a valve without a bucket anywhere near it. It's the safe way to dig inside a line's tolerance zone, and on most oilfield jobs, it's required.
When you need it
- Daylighting a line before a crossing, tie-in or bore
- Potholing to verify depth and location for design or a locate
- Digging inside the tolerance zone of a marked pipeline, gas main or electric line
- Slot trenching and exposing valves, risers and test stations
- Cleaning out cellars, pits and sumps
How we do it
We run our own trucks with a CDL operator and a hand, out of Midland and Big Spring. Send the job and a pin on the hole. We call in the Texas 811 locate ourselves before every dig. We mobilize fast, fill with fresh water near your location, and haul the spoil where it belongs. Need a truck every day? Ask about a dedicated hydrovac crew on a monthly rate.
What's included
- Truck, CDL operator and labor hand
- Water sourced near your job
- Spoil hauled off or backfilled as you direct
- Day, half-day or hourly, or a dedicated monthly crew
- Line locating and line-crossing reps on the same call
Questions
How fast can you get a hydrovac truck out?
Usually the same day or next day across Midland, Odessa, Big Spring and Stanton, depending on the schedule. Call (940) 452-6716 for today.
Do you handle the 811 locate?
Yes. As the excavator, we call in the Texas 811 locate ourselves before every dig. Just send the job and a pin.
Can you keep a truck on our jobs every day?
Yes. Our Dedicated Hydrovac Program puts the same truck and crew on your sites every working day at a flat monthly rate.
What's the difference between hydrovac and air excavation?
Both are non-destructive. Water cuts caliche and hard ground much faster than air, which is why most Permian digs use hydrovac.
