Water and Wastewater
Sector
The water and wastewater sectors face unprecedented challenges – ageing infrastructure, population growth, water scarcity and climate change. Our specialist teams can guide you through them all. We search for the opportunity to add value – technical, economic, environmental, and social. We constantly stretch our thinking to cut costs, increase efficiency, reduce risk, and improve resilience and reliability.
We do this through close collaboration with our clients – we understand their business environment and the needs of their end users. We also do this by working with others in our clients’ supply chains, harnessing our collective skills and ingenuity to forge delivery models that provide end-to-end service and support.
Water Resource Management
Water resources issues which we provide assistance for include local drinking water, large scale catchment management for water supply, irrigation water needs, hydropower schemes, flood and erosion control and protection of aquatic systems for wildlife. We have experience of providing our clients with efficient and sustainable solutions to water resources issues that are aimed at optimizing natural flows in rivers and groundwater sources to meet the various competing needs for water.
Irrigation and Drainage
We provide leading consultancy services aimed at improving irrigation, drainage, and water resources management. Our teams have been involved in irrigation developments over the past 10 years, encompassing all forms of irrigation and rural development.
River Engineering
We've been responsible for various projects involving construction works in rivers. These have ranged from major flood alleviation projects to studies of dredging requirements. Our river engineers works on diversions, river training works, scour protection at bridges, river amenity improvements, river flow gauging stations and flow control structures. Our team of in-house experts in hydrology, hydraulic modelling, environmental impact assessment, and landscape design work closely with our hydraulic engineers in developing river engineering works.
Clean Water Networks
We assist clients in building and modelling the water supply network of its systems. Our experience spans the entire regime from planning to design to addressing operational constraints. Our involvement in projects has assisted the client in identifying optimal solutions that range from resolving capacity constraints in existing systems, to assessing the impact of network extensions as well as in the design of new systems.
