Congratulations to Roy Slocombe on receiving the prestigious James Clark Memorial Medal 2026 from the British Tunnelling Society.
The James Clark Memorial Medal is one of the British tunnelling industry’s highest honors and recognizes outstanding contributions to the profession.

Throughout his career Roy has been involved with tunnelling works, mostly with tunnelling contractors, and latterly more involved with tunnelling equipment.

When Roy took over the leadership of Herrenknecht International Ltd. (HIL) in Sunderland in 2000, he was able to draw on decades of experience in tunnelling and engineering to help position Herrenknecht for the opportunities ahead.
Under his leadership, we strengthened our local presence and supported some of the UK’s most significant tunnelling programs, including the Channel Tunnel Rail Link, London Power Tunnels, Thames Tideway and London Crossrail where Herrenknecht were able to supply 8 EPB shields and Mixshields for 42 km of tunnelling across London.

Beyond his role at Herrenknecht, Roy has been involved in advancing the wider tunnelling profession. Through his work with industry organizations, technical committees and training initiatives, he has helped improve standards, safety and knowledge sharing across UK tunnelling sector while supporting the development of future tunnelling professionals.

Few people have shaped both Herrenknecht’s journey in the UK and the wider tunnelling industry to the extent Roy has.
Congratulations Roy!

In 1990, one of the first Herrenknecht EPB machines ever used in Germany was produced.
The 3.10m o.d. EPB machine, in conjunction with the pipe jacking technique, completed 3 straight drives to instal a new 1.5km long x 2.60m i.d. combined collector sewer through the Bürgerpark in Bremen, Germany.

In a daring move, the machine excavated a 3.08m o.d. collector sewer tunnel less than one machine diameter beneath the surface and closely parallel to a canal in the Bürgerpark in Bremen. Driving under just 1m to 2m of cover, the TBM successfully excavated relatively homogenous material comprising waterbearing peat, silt and sands with the watertable lying about 1m above the tunnel crown.

A bold premiere!
You got it: we’re celebrating 50 years of hightech in action! Join us in reliving our history!

A major milestone for one of Europe’s most significant rail infrastructure projects: TBM Wilma has completed the first continuous main tunnel tube of the Brenner Base Tunnel. With the breakthrough, the western main tunnel is now continuous over its approximately 55km length, stretching from the Sillschlucht near Innsbruck to Franzensfeste in South Tyrol.

After 706 days of tunnelling in challenging geological conditions, Herrenknecht Double Shield TBM Wilma broke through, completing its 7.5km drive. Equipped with a cutterhead measuring approximately 10.3m in diameter, weighing around 2,700-tonnes and reaching a length of more than 180m, Wilma installed more than 23,000 lining segments along the way.

For the construction of the Brenner Base Tunnel, the Herrenknecht Group supplied a total of 8 TBMs, together with additional equipment and comprehensive support from experienced service specialists.

Congratulations to all teams involved – especially our client BBT SE and customer ARGE H53 (PORR & MARTI). Well done!

Thinking bigger. Going further.

In 1988, Herrenknecht employed 110 people at its 5,000 m² company premises. But the ambitions were growing just as fast.

For the Grauholz Tunnel in Switzerland, Herrenknecht built the largest Mixshield in Europe at the time, with a diameter of 11.60 m. It was also the company’s first multimode TBM — a machine designed to handle changing ground conditions and provide maximum safety and flexibility throughout the entire advance.

Building it was an engineering challenge in its own right. It opened the door to a new field of machine technology and demonstrated what can be achieved when expertise, courage and the willingness to push boundaries come together.

You got it: we’re celebrating 50 years of hightech in action! Join us in reliving our history!

Congratulations to the tunneling company on the successful completition of two E-Power Pipe drives as part of FortisBC’s Eagle Mountain – Woodfibre Woodfibre LNG Gas Pipeline Project in Squamish, British Columbia, Canada, each approximately 650m long.

The project involved the installation of a 24-inch steel gas pipeline using the E-Power Pipe with backreaming.

For both drives, the slurry MTBM created the pilot bore with 505mm diameter before enlarging the bore to 790mm during subsequent backreaming and pipeline pullback.

The first drive was completed in less than 3 weeks’ time, from pilot bore launch to pull-in completion. On the second drive, duration of the pilot bore was reduced to 7 days.

Despite challenging ground conditions, including significant amounts of wood debris along the alignment, both installations were successfully completed.

Well done!

As a young tunnel engineer in India and Singapore, Suraj contributed to major underground infrastructure projects, working closely with Herrenknecht machines and teams.
His career took him through some of India's most significant underground infrastructure projects, including Mumbai Metro Line 3, before eventually leading him to Singapore's Deep Tunnel Sewerage System.

Over the years, he worked closely with Herrenknecht machines and teams on jobsites around the world.
Every time he saw the Herrenknecht logo on a machine, he saw the source of innovation in mechanized tunnelling. Becoming part of that company felt more like a dream than a realistic career goal.

In 2024, that dream came true when he moved from Singapore to join Herrenknecht's headquarters in Germany.
He was no longer working only with Herrenknecht technology, he was working alongside the experts who design, build, and support these machines across the globe.
One of Suraj's most memorable Herrenknecht Moments was his first walk through the Schwanau facilities.

After years of operating and maintaining TBMs on jobsites, seeing where these machines were designed and built gave him a completely new appreciation of the scale, expertise, and passion behind every project.

The Tung Chung Line Extension project in Hongkong achieved its final breakthrough: the 7.11-meter-diameter variable-density TBM Xihe, provided by Herrenknecht, successfully completed its last tunnelling mission end of June, breaking through the down-track tunnel from Tung Chung Station to the future Tung Chung West Station. The first breakthrough at the up-track tunnel was achieved earlier this year in February.

Leveraging its variable-density technology, Xihe flexibly adjusted its tunnelling mode during construction, effectively overcoming complex geological challenges including hard rock, mixed subsea ground, and areas with high groundwater pressure.

Behind the Tung Chung West Station project lies Herrenknecht’s seamless collaboration across borders, time zones, and departments—from design drawings at its German headquarters to precision assembly at the Nansha factory in Guangzhou; from comprehensive quality inspections to logistics teams ensuring safe delivery across thousands of kilometers. Meet some the professionals this project!

A major milestone has been reached in Bangkok: the second of two Herrenknecht EPB shields, each with a diameter of 6.55m, has successfully completed its 3.2km drive for the Bangkok Metro Purple Line Project.

Since starting their journeys, the two TBMs have been tunnelling through Bangkok’s soft soil while minimising surface disruption, completing the twin tunnels of Contract 4 between Memorial Bridge and Dao Khanong.

Congratulations to Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand (MRTA) on this achievement. Well done!
