Where the difference can come from

For many pipeline projects, the sustainability case is shaped by what happens around the pipe: imported aggregate, haulage, spoil movement, temporary access and construction duration.

  • Less imported aggregate where the project design allows.
  • Reduced haulage and spoil movement in scenarios with high selected-material demand.
  • Less concrete in some project scenarios, depending on design and installation requirements.
  • Shorter construction duration where production assumptions and site constraints support it.
  • Potentially reduced access burden where logistics dominate the construction case.

Quantified through PACE

PACE helps compare sustainability effects alongside cost and programme, using explicit assumptions rather than broad claims.

Calculation boundary

Define what is included, such as aggregate, foam, transport, spoil handling, plant and programme effects.

Scenario comparison

Compare a conventional installation case with a HydroFoamer case under the same project assumptions.

Transparent inputs

Keep material quantities, haul distances, production rates and commercial assumptions visible for review.

Use PACE to frame an early sustainability comparison, then review the outputs against the project boundary and available data.
