Project Overview
The City of Rensselaer, Indiana considered a second pipeline tap to feed their natural gas system to ensure increased reliability of service to their customers. USDI completed the pipeline study, design and full construction, installation and start-up. Downstream of the interconnect included regulation, odorization, heater and the 6” steel high pressure feeder with a galvanic anode cathodic protection system. The route consisted of multiple directional bores of road and drainage crossings. The project concluded with as-builts, installation and inspection records provided to the City.
“Our relationship with USDI goes back decades. We recently had them complete a large High Pressure Main project. The crew is always professional and very knowledgeable. Expect hard work and attention to detail. The crew comes to town ready to get the job done. “
— Carol Lockridge, Gas Superintendent
