Pipeline Support

Protect oil and gas pipelines from erosion, undermining, and scour.

Oil and gas pipeline corridors are often exposed to surface erosion, runoff, drainage flow, and soil movement that can undermine the soils supporting critical pipeline infrastructure. The GEOWEB® Soil Stabilization System helps protect these areas by confining infill within a 3D cellular structure to create a stable upper soil layer that resists erosive forces.

The GEOWEB system can be designed with vegetation, aggregate, or concrete infill depending on site conditions, flow conditions, and performance requirements. This flexibility makes it well-suited for pipeline slopes, diversion channels, pipe outfalls, and other erosion-prone areas along oil and gas corridors.

As part of a site’s Erosion & Sediment Control plan or post-construction Best Management Practice strategy, GEOWEB geocells help stabilize exposed soils, protect supporting ground, and reduce long-term maintenance needs.

Where temporary access or staging is needed, GEOTERRA® Construction Mats can provide a reusable surface for equipment, vehicles, and work areas along pipeline corridors. This helps reduce rutting and site disturbance during construction or maintenance without shifting the page away from pipeline erosion protection.
