Aberlour Abstraction

DSC was appointed Principal Contractor for the installation of a new abstraction pipeline to support future whisky production at Aberlour Distillery for Chivas Brothers Limited. The project involved approximately 680 linear metres of pipework, running from the distillery infrastructure to the River Spey. Key challenges included horizontal directional drilling (HDD) beneath the A95 trunk road, working adjacent to Aberlour Football Club, and in-river works to install inlet and outlet connections, including the construction of an 8-metre-deep pumping chamber.
