A pipe-laying machine for laying pipes in the construction of pipelines includes: a central body to which two track assemblies are mechanically connected, the central body being adapted to support a base on which at least a boom is installed to move/lift/position the pipe; lifting means for handling the boom having a main winch; and an operator control cab. The boom having a first end pivoted on the base and a second end, connected to a control cable of the lifting means to wind/unwind itself on the main winch in order to rotate said boom carrying the second end away from/towards the ground. Between the base and central body, a levelling mechanism is interposed to tilt the base with respect to the track assemblies, according to a longitudinal axis parallel to and/or according to a transverse axis orthogonal to the direction of advancement of the track assemblies.
