Abstract

A method of installing an underground utility line (8) such as a power cable into a bore-hole (1) extending horizontally comprises the steps of hauling the utility line (8) along the bore-hole (1) so as to install the utility line (8) along the bottom or floor of the bore-hole (1); simultaneously or subsequent hauling at least an outer sleeve (14) of a warning/protective line (9) in a pre-activated form along the bore-hole (1) and in an orientation whereby the warning/protective line is maintained above the utility line (8); inserting into the outer sleeve (14) either before or after installation of the outer sleeve into the bore-hole a dual element line comprising an inflatable, elongate sock (13) of plastics material, which in turn surrounds the grout pipe (12); anchoring the leading end of the utility line (8) and the warning/protective line (9) at a terminal end of the bore-hole (1); retracting the outer sleeve (14) from the leading end of the bore-hole (1) so as to expose the sock (13) along the bore-hole (1); inflating the sock (13) with pressurised air; and introducing grout from the grout pipe (12) into the sock (13) starting at or adjacent the terminal end of the bore-hole and working towards the lead end of the bore-hole (1), whilst simultaneously progressively withdrawing the grout pipe from the leading end of the bore-hole (1), whereby the pressurized air is progressively replaced by grout.
