With its presence firmly established in
the pipeline industry, in October, 2018,
IPC focused on strategically diversi-
fying its portfolio by amalgamating
with Bothar Boring, one of the largest
tunneling and trenchless contractors
in the world.
“We can now have the opportunity
to operate on a much broader scale,”
says Peter Hennig, CEO of IPC, “and
will be able to expand from the oil and
gas sector into others, such as munic-
ipal and civil works, with a focus on
Canada’s infrastructure program.”
IPC is now able to provide Tunneling,
Microtunneling, and Auger Boring
services ranging from 300mm up to
4.000mm.While thefirstAuger Boring
equipment has landed in Calgary and
is already getting prepared for the
next job, IPC is involved in tender-
ing for major Microtunneling projects
throughout the country. Additional
resources are being mobilized to
Calgary to support the team during
this growth period.
