CASE STUDY
EMERGENCY REPAIR OF 36" UNDERWATER PIPELINE
When a critical 36-inch underwater intake pipeline servicing the cities of Round Rock, Leander, and Cedar Park, Texas began losing nearly one-third of its capacity, immediate intervention was required. The failing pipeline placed multiple communities under severe water restrictions—an urgent situation that demanded rapid analysis, decisive action, and 24/7 execution.
Thalle mobilized under emergency conditions to perform a complex underwater repair and partial pipeline replacement. Marine crews were deployed on a barge, where divers completed a detailed underwater investigation to identify the exact source of the failure. Once confirmed, the team initiated a controlled shutdown of the line to safely access the damaged joint.
The repair required removing the faulty section and installing a solid sleeve tied into a double ball coupler. To ensure long-term structural stability, Thalle’s pile-driving crew installed H-beams and a heavy cross-member support to permanently reinforce the pipeline. The effort brought together divers, welders, operators, and pile drivers working around the clock—24 hours a day, seven days a week—to minimize service interruption.
Despite the complexities of underwater construction and the urgency of the situation, the pipeline was restored quickly, safely, and with long-term reliability built into the final solution.
