🎥 Project Milestone: Kilnap HDD Completion Under an Active Substation

Join us as we celebrate the successful completion of the Kilnap Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) project — the first of its kind carried out under an active 110kV AIS substation in Ireland.

After over a year of meticulous planning, technical design, and collaborative workshops, the GMAC Utilities team — working closely with H&MV, ESB, and MWP — delivered an engineering achievement that earned recognition at the 2025 Irish Construction Excellence (ICE) Awards, where the project was honoured with the Silver Award.
This video captures the journey behind the scenes, highlighting the dedication, expertise, and teamwork that made this complex operation possible.
From detailed planning to on-site execution, every step reflects our commitment to excellence in utility infrastructure.
Special thanks to our partners — and to the creative team who braved Storm Darragh’s last boat from England to document this milestone!
