The problem of complexity and the high economic costs for the construction and repair of pipelines through natural prepyatsviya. A detailed overview of the possibility of applying the "Method curves" during the overhaul, reconstruction and capital construction of underwater crossings of trunk oil and gas pipelines, compared with the traditional method of laying pipe by horizontal directional drilling, given the advantages of this method in terms of both economy and ecology. Detailed description of the general principles of construction works at the construction site with the use of innovative technologies.

Keywords: pipelines, the method of horizontal directional drilling, underwater passages, pipe bent by cold deformation
