Before you dig

11 September 2006 by  Birte Mikaelsen

 

Before you dig near gas pipelines or cables, you must know their position. It is important – and in some instances required - that you obtain information on the specific position of the installations whether you plan major construction work or a minor excavation.
 
Do not dig without a drawing
When you work near a gas pipeline or cables you must comply with a number of technical safety regulations.
If you plan construction work near a gas pipeline or a cable, you must seek precise information on the grid. Do not dig without a layout plan!

You can get further information from us or the company mentioned on the marking posts.
