High-speed rail Jakarta-Bandung

Bored Piles Installation in Indonesia

High-speed rail connecting Jakarta and Bandung

As nearly 80 km of the railway is elevated rail, the installation of pier heads was an important part of the construction. Around 2900 pier heads with 12 to 20 supporting bored piles are to be installed by the end of the project. As a specialist for bored piles foundations, our team of mud engineers was able to not only provide the best performing drilling fluid but also deliver excellent mud management services.

Project Responsibilities

  • Technical support during the installation of numerous special foundations such as bore piles and diaphragm walls.

  • Project-based drilling fluid formulations

Project Challenges

  • Soil profile: highly heterogeneous ground conditions with loose sand, stone and clay

  • Deep foundations of up to 100 m, stabilization of the bore piles as one of the main focus

  • Continuous supply of material as the construction was located beside a crowded highway.
