IF47 — 138 kV Remediation — SaskPower
Challenge
Forest fires took down structures on SaskPower’s IF47 138 kV line. Revolution Drilling remobilized a fully heli-portable crew to restore foundations and anchors so the corridor could return to reliable service.
Access & terrain
Full heli job — no track-mounted drilling units. Every pad was reached by helicopter through burned forest and limited ROW access.
Scope
- Remediate foundations and anchors on IF47 after wildfire damage
- Drill and install with custom heli drills, custom hand drills, and other hand drills
- Support heli-portable drilling with custom heli compressors
- Restore structure reliability on the 138 kV line
Outcome
Fully heli-portable remediation that returned IF47 structures to reliable service for SaskPower after the wildfire failures.
