According to the present invention, there is provided a pipe forming apparatus for forming a pipe at an installation site. The apparatus includes a former upon which material is wound, and a mold for receiving the former bearing the wound material. An applicator is provided for applying curable liquid within the mold. Advantageously, the pipe is formed at site to provide for efficient formation of a pipeline. A transported ISO container providing the material and curable liquid to the site can produce 800 metres of pipeline section, compared with 60 metres in the prior art, representing a significant increase in efficiency.

Techniques for implementing and/or operating a pipe deployment system that includes pipe deployment equipment, in which a pipe drum having spooled thereon a pipe segment is to be loaded on the pipe deployment equipment, and a pulling device to be secured to an unspooled section of the pipe segment. The pulling device includes a device body having a first body arm and a second body arm, in which the device body is to be disposed around the unspooled section of the pipe segment, the first body arm is to be secured to a first cable branch, and the second body arm is to be secured to a second cable branch. The pulling device includes a first pipe grabber secured to the first body arm and a second pipe grabber secured to the second body arm such that the second pipe grabber and the first pipe grabber open towards one another.

A cast-in-place concrete pipe system comprising at least one outer barrel, at least one inner barrel, at least one reinforcement dowel used to create a reinforcement cage, at least one reinforcement wall separator, at least one coupling ring, at least one fill port, one or more barrel support stands and a concrete mixture that is poured into the fill port to reside in the space between the outer barrel and the inner barrel. The cast-in-place concrete pipe system is designed to create a single pipe unit which is chemically resistant and configurable to numerous underground pipe, manhole and utility system needs.
