The Experts in Horizontal Remediation Wells
Contamination doesn’t care what’s sitting on top of it. Buildings. Highways. Active facilities. When vertical wells can’t reach the plume, Directional Technologies can. Since 1992, we’ve designed and installed 5,000+ horizontal remediation wells worldwide, solving the problems others can’t touch.

The Team Behind the World’s Toughest Remediation Sites
Environmental remediation projects often stall when contamination lies beneath buildings, highways, rail lines, or active facilities, places that vertical wells simply can’t reach.
Directional Technologies solves these challenges with far more than drilling. Our engineers, geologists, and directional drilling specialists work with environmental consultants to design and install horizontal remediation well systems that access contamination in difficult locations.
From system planning to precision installation, we help remediation technologies reach the plume and move projects forward when conventional approaches fall short.
Why Environmental Teams Work With Directional Technologies
Engineering-Driven Approach
Our team includes engineers and geologists who help design horizontal well systems that perform.
5,000+ Horizontal Wells Installed
Decades of field experience across complex environmental remediation sites worldwide.
Access Where Others Cannot
Horizontal wells allow remediation beneath buildings, railroads, highways, tanks, and active facilities.
Proven Remediation Performance
Horizontal well systems often accelerate site cleanup by increasing contact with the contaminant plume.
Experience That Shows Up in the Field
Experience matters when remediation projects involve complex sites, tight access, and little room for error. For more than three decades, Directional Technologies has worked alongside environmental consultants to install horizontal remediation systems at sites where conventional approaches fall short.
Our experience includes supporting remediation systems such as:
- Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE)
- Dual-Phase Extraction (DPE)
- Air Sparging and Biosparging
- In-Situ Chemical Oxidation (ISCO)
- Groundwater Recovery Systems
- Custom Horizontal Remediation Applications

Industry Firsts and Innovation
Directional Technologies has helped pioneer the use of horizontal wells for environmental remediation worldwide.
Notable projects include:
- First horizontal dual-phase extraction well installed in South Korea
- First horizontal wells installed in Australia for in-situ chemical oxidation and biosparging
- First horizontal ozone sparge wells installed in Alabama
These projects represent just a small portion of the innovative applications our team has supported. We continue to work with environmental engineers, consultants, and researchers to expand the capabilities of horizontal remediation systems.

Solving Complex Remediation Challenges
Horizontal remediation wells are not always the first solution considered. But when contamination lies beneath infrastructure, when vertical wells fail, or when cleanup timelines stall, horizontal wells can provide a powerful alternative.
Directional Technologies brings the engineering expertise, drilling precision, and field experience needed to make these systems successful.
If you are evaluating horizontal remediation wells for your next project, our team is ready to help.
