Brent Lane and his business partner, Steve Parker, have felt the ups and downs of the horizontal directional drilling business. The friends started Parker Lane Directional Drilling in 1998 and began working on fiber projects in the Fort Worth, TX area. When the fiber industry went bust, the pair did everything possible to survive two incredibly lean years.rn"I guess we got in the directional drilling business at the right time and that helped to establish our company," said Lane. "Many contractors went bankrupt because they only focused on one area of fiber installation. We had the equipment and expertise to handle any fiber project and that fueled our transition into the pipeline market."
