A Milestone for my Land Rover

Despite the Covid 19 pandemic I have been pretty busy at work with various projects that have to be continued to secure the waste water purification in our province. And for that the transportation pipelines need some tender loving care from time to time 😋

Relining one of the main transport sewers from the sewage treatment plant in Roermond.
The pipe had the decency to collapse only days before the planned renovation!

Preparations for an inline inspection of a concrete DN900 pressure pipeline in Schinnen.
One of the main sewage pipelines in our province transporting up to 6000 m³
of sewage water per hour to the treatment plant in Hoensbroek.


Replacing a badly corroded steel pipeline fitted to the bridge across “Het Juliana kanaal” near Illikhoven.
We choose to drill under the canal and part of the neighbouring industrial estate, using heavy HDD equipment.

And as a result of these projects running simultaneously the Defender has seen well above average use over the past few weeks. Resulting in this milestone, as today the car passed the 200.000 kilometre mark.


An interesting but totally irrelevant detail, it happened at exactly the same spot were my previous Defender passed the 100.000 kilometre mark! And to celebrate this I went for a social-distant-friendly green lane tour afterwards!
