Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) has completed 54.23 per cent of the work on the water transmission pipelines extension project alongside Al Khail Road from Al Quoz Industrial Fourth to Al Thanyah Fifth.
The extension work is being implemented at a total cost of about AED60 million ($16.3 million) spanning over 22 km with a diameter of 1200 mm.
As per the approved plan, the project aims to increase water flow, and enhance the efficiency and reliability of water networks to meet the growing demand in these areas, it stated.
Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, the Managing Director and CEO of Dewa, said the project also includes remote monitoring and control, which enables control of key water networks effectively round the clock.
This is through automated valves operated from the control centre to reduce interruptions and water network losses, noted Al Tayer.
“We adopt the latest technologies in the production, transmission, and distribution as well as control of water and electricity networks. We apply the highest global standards in our projects to raise operational and production efficiency,” he added.-TradeArabia News Service
