Project
A drought stricken municipality in the Southwest contacted EnTech to locate water pipeline leaks throughout their 150 mile water distribution system. They reported that their system was losing nearly 13 million gallons of water per month. In a town where the water usage is approximately 30 million gallons monthly, a 30% loss was staggering.
Our Technology
Data collection for this project was done from a helicopter using our patented stacked technology which included visual imaging, infrared thermography and LIDAR (light detection and ranging).
The Personalized Solution
We processed and merged the complex data to create a comprehensive and useful report. Our easy to interpret report lead to the best repair solution for our client. This leak was one of many identified in this project, helping this town regain control over its precious water supply.
Our licensed Professional Engineers help you evaluate, maintain, preserve, and extend the life of your water distribution systems and facilities.
EnTech can non-invasively pin-point problems & suggest repairs on most types of pipelines without affecting traffic, system flows or service with greater than 80% cost savings when compared to invasive testing & trenching techniques.
Our expertise includes:
- Pipelines, fire suppression systems, roofs, walls & sewers
Leak Detection
- Leaks can create voids, voids can lead to sinkholes: find them before catastrophic occurrence & big repair bills
Void Detection
- Multiple pipeline systems running within 50 feet of each other can be investigated simultaneously to save money in high-density plants
Pipeline System Mapping
- Locating leaks saves money & valuable resources & prevents property damage
Water Conservation
- Leak detection to extend longevity
Well Conservation
- Investigate structural integrity; repair before property & life is lost
City & Municipal Assets • Levee & Dam conservation
