UNACCOUNTED FOR WATER
AND STATUS QUO REPORTING
- We completed several projects on various reticulation
schemes, for various District and Local Municipalities,
in KZN, with respect to repairs and replacements to piping,
valves, pumps, metering equipment etc. Modifications to
schemes were performed to improve the supply of water to
areas. During the entirety of these projects UFW issues
were being addressed and water balancing done until the
schemes had acceptable losses.
- Similar type of work has also been conducted outside
of the borders of South Africa
E.g. the assessment of water flows in Beira, Nampula and
Pemba in Mozambique.
Installation of temporary metering devices, pump trials
and recording and logging of
flows at all sites. I also did the production flow analyses
including:
The comparison of measured production flows with estimates
produced by the Private Operator (PO); Assessment of methodology
used by the PO; Recommendations for procedures to be used
by the PO & Status reports on existing flow meters.
- The upgrade and rehabilitation of the water supply system
for the town of Port
Harcourt, Nigeria, for the River State Government. The job
included zoning and mapping of the town's water supply systems.
The testing of the systems to determine maximum capabilities,
identifying problem areas and providing solutions. It included
leak detection, flow and pressure logging, the recording
and analysis thereof. Investigation and recording of all
information on all schemes and delivering it for updating
of GIS.
- The above type of work includes the:
- Reviewing the scheme layout and zoning of areas.
- Installation of data loggers at strategic places on
pipelines recording flows and pressures, analysing data
and trending.
- Inspection of meters checking accuracy, correct sizing
and general operation thereof.
- Installation of portable meters to check on accuracy
of permanent meters or to verify flows where necessary.
- Identify and repair leaks, blocked pipes, air entrapment,
burnt and undersized pipes.
- Check integrity of control devices and replace or
repair. E.g. Float level control valves, pump control
valves, flow and pressure devices.
- Identify and report on faulty storage infrastructure.
E.g. reservoirs, BPT's etc.
- Provided a detailed report of findings and repairs
with recommendations.
