Pipelayers - old models

 Volvo began the development of a new product class of pipelaying machines in 2007, and the new machines represent a revolutionary advancement over traditional pipelaying dozers with a side-based boom. Pipelayer products were selectively introduced in 2008.

The new patented-design was given the BP Special Award for Innovation of Significant Merit in 2008 for its major contribution to innovation related to cross-country onshore pipeline construction.
