More Than Pipe. Backed All the Way.
Project: Geothermal Pumped Sewer Main
System: Aquatherm Blue PP-R
Scope: Large-diameter, trenchless installation
Partners: Hynds Pipe Systems Limited, Fulton Hogan
A geothermal pumped sewer main is not a standard installation - and it is not a job where there is room for guesswork.
From specification through to commissioning, the project demanded a piping system that could handle pressure, temperature variation and long-term operation. It also needed a supply partner willing to stay involved beyond delivery.
That’s where USCO came in.
The Challenge
The project required a large-diameter solution suited to a geothermal environment, with installation efficiency front of mind. The trenchless installation added another layer of complexity, making material selection, joint integrity and installer confidence critical. Time on site also needed to be reduced without compromising the quality of the installation.

The Solution
USCO worked alongside the project team to specify the Aquatherm Blue PP-R Piping System for the application.
More than 400 metres of pipe was supplied in 11.6-metre lengths, reducing the number of joints and helping streamline installation. Fewer joints meant less work on site, reduced installation risk and greater confidence across the project.
But supplying the product was only one part of USCO’s role. Our team provided technical guidance through specification, practical training for the installation team and ongoing support as the project moved through delivery and commissioning.
For a project operating outside standard conditions, that involvement mattered. It helped ensure the system was understood, installed correctly and backed throughout the job.

The Outcome
A corrosion-free piping system suited to the geothermal environment
Faster installation through longer pipe lengths and fewer joints.
Greater installer confidence through practical training and support
Reduced on-site risk through correct specification.
A durable, corrosion-free system built for long-term performance.
This project is a strong example of why enquiries for large-diameter Aquatherm Blue are growing – particularly where trenchless installation, durability, and long-term reliability are critical.
It is a strong example of what USCO brings to complex projects: the right system, practical knowledge and support that stays with the job.
