Task

Provide accurate, actionable subsurface data to protect gas stations across the San Francisco Bay area from the dangers of utility strikes.

PROBLEM

  • A major oil and gas company requires its gas stations on the west coast to have utility locating services conducted before beginning any excavations deeper than three inches
  • The company’s Site Maintenance Supervisor for the San Francisco Bay Area needed accurate, actionable data to help prevent subsurface damage during these excavations
  • Projects involving digging on gas station sites often need to happen quickly as emergency or other urgent situations arise

Solution

  • GPRS Project Managers are SIM-certified and able to deploy both GPR and electromagnetic (EM) locating to ensure 99.8%+ accurate results during our utility locates
  • With a nationwide team of over 500 Project Managers strategically stationed across every major market, we’re able to respond rapidly to emergency projects
  • Our team takes a consultative approach to every job, ensuring you have what you need to plan, design, and build better

Benefits

  • Thanks to their stringent dig policy and the accurate data provided by GPRS, the company’s West Coast Team has experienced zero ground strikes
  • The Site Maintenance Supervisor can rely on GPRS to respond rapidly to urgent utility locate requests, ensuring stations are not without vital services for longer than necessary
  • O&M at the stations can be conducted without risk of subsurface damage that would endanger the lives of workers and customers
