Abstract: This paper discusses ANR Pipeline Companys recent experience with two horizontally drilled crossings near Morgan City, Louisiana. These are by no means significant crossings in terms of size and length. The longest crossing that my brief research was able to uncover was a 4,700-foot, 12-inch crossing of the Magdalena River in Colombia, which was completed in 1982. The largest diameter was a 1,700-foot crossing of the Houston Ship Channel with 40-inch pipe in 1979. Now that you know what some of the more significant horizontally drilled crossings have been, Id like to tell you about two eight-inch crossings one is a 774-foot crossing under the Southern Pacific Railroad and U.S. Highway 90, the other a 1424-foot crossing beneath Bayou Teche. Both of these crossings are located between Patterson, Louisiana, and the Wax Lake Outlet.
