An accurate condition assessment of a pipeline empowers utilities to make the best use of their resources, but it’s important to use the right technology for your asset type. Information is the key to success in asset management. With finite resources at their disposal, utilities need to ensure that they can allocate their time and…
The Mounting Costs of Inaction Water pipe bursts are becoming an alarmingly frequent occurrence, disrupting communities and placing immense strain on water utilities and councils. While the immediate image is of gushing water and flooded streets, the true cost of these failures extends far beyond the visible damage. We delve into the multifaceted consequences of…
Water utilities and councils face a dual challenge in managing reticulation water pipelines: ensuring the quality of potable water and maximising the lifespan of infrastructure assets. One of the most insidious threats to both goals is biofilm formation within pipelines. Biofilms, while invisible to the naked eye, have a profound impact on water quality, public…
Severe weather events, fueled by climate change, are placing unprecedented stress on water infrastructure worldwide. From floods and cyclones to prolonged droughts, these events disrupt water supply systems, jeopardise water quality, and can damage pipeline and associated assets. For water utilities and councils, acting swiftly and strategically to address these impacts is no longer optional—it…
Reliable water infrastructure is essential to ensuring smooth and uninterrupted operations.
