Facilities Piping

Savings in the pipeline - corrosion prevention and control.
A corrosion control program for your facility can't be ignored. A few dollars saved now is nothing compared to the fortune you may spend when your neglected pipe system corrodes causing leaks or ruptures.

Let Nicor audit your pipe system and develop a turnkey corrosion control plan that's right for you. Backed by 50 years of experience, Nicor also offers:

  • Pipe system locating and mapping
  • Pipeline integrity programs
  • Metallurgical design and failure analysis
Directional Boring and Other Non-Destructive Technologies

Nicor understands how disruptive excavation can be when installing piping. That's why we offer the latest in directional boring and trenchless technologies, such as pipebursting, sliplining and swagelining. These methods allow pipes to be installed with very little excavation. They can also reduce or eliminate restoration costs, as well as reduce disruption to traffic, the public and the environment.

Benefits of Directional Boring:

  • It's more cost-effective.
  • It takes less time to complete.
  • It's safer for the environment.

Gas, Water, Storm and Sanitary Sewer

If your facility needs a natural gas or chemical pipeline – if it needs a water, sewer or fire loop system – or if it needs above or below ground storage, Nicor will find the right solution. We have expertise in all piping materials including MDPE, HDPE, PVC, ductile iron and steel. We can also maintain your piping system, guaranteeing a leak-free infrastructure for many years to come.
