From remote rural locations to busy downtown streets, our crews deliver overhead and underground electrical transmission and distribution services in even the most challenging terrains and circumstances, and our experience has given us a deep understanding of the unique characteristics and hazards of high-voltage power line operations. We work closely with our clients (and their partners) to ensure the highest levels of safety, overall environmental stewardship, and the proper energizing of each project. Our experienced teams utilize cutting edge technologies and deep industry knowledge to design specifications and drawings, schedule projects, manage quality control, and ultimately ensure the safety and success of each project we take on.
Gas Transmission & Distribution
Installing and maintaining natural gas pipeline systems can be a major undertaking, but Mountain Engineering is equipped with the innovation, capabilities, and resources to meet any demand on-time and on-budget. We provide gathering, upstream, midstream and distribution construction services for oil and natural gas pipelines. Our experienced staff works to achieve the highest levels of safety and quality for each project, ensuring that the natural gas pipeline can withstand extreme pressure and environments with long-term reliability and safety. In urban and rural environments, our trenching capabilities allow us to minimize disruptions to traffic, homeowners, and businesses, as well as coordinate with multiple other companies to integrate various utilities and communications services in one trench. In rural or remote areas, we utilize specialized equipment to quickly move earth and cut through rock. Every one of our employees is held accountable for meeting our stringent safety standards and for maintaining our commitment to environmental responsibility. We are constantly striving to develop innovative solutions that balance the needs of our clients with those of landowners, regulatory agencies, and the environment, and to return each project site to the condition in which we found it.
Substation
Mountain Engineering works with companies, cooperatives, and municipalities to successfully manage all phases of substation and switchyard construction. We have the resources and experience to deliver turnkey, ground-up solutions for alternative and direct-current stations (from 500kV and down), but are also adept at installing, testing, and connecting prefabricated equipment.
As leaders in the industry Mountain Engineering is assisting utility companies to optimize their existing network of substations and switchyards to meet increasing power demands. Mountain Engineering upgrades and/or integrates new equipment to facilitate more efficient and reliable energy distribution through monitoring systems.
One of the major drivers in the development of new distribution systems is changing technologies, such as PLC controls and Solid State transformers. As a leader in the deployment of distribution automation equipment, Mountain Engineering is helping its customers stay abreast with evolving technologies.
