UNDERGROUND PIPELINE AGE DETERMINATION
Optimize the management of water networks.
The durability and efficiency of water networks depend on in-depth knowledge of the pipes that compose them.
Aquanexa offers an advanced pipeline “age assessment”, designed to support managers in understanding the characteristics and age of infrastructures:
- study of the network and territory concerned;
- creation of a database with an ESTIMATION of the installation date for each pipe correlated with an estimate tolerance (determined by the data estimation method);
- asset management support for under-service management programs in the medium/long term;
- integration of the missing data (including material) into the initial DB with continuity and proximity methods;
- field inspections to determine the missing information – verification of the spot data (on inspectable points).
This service makes it possible to detect the laying time, current status and residual life cycle of pipelines, providing essential information for optimal network management.
We use innovative technologies and scientific analysis methods that combine physical inspection of pipelines with the processing of historical and environmental data. Through field surveys, non-destructive testing and digital modelling, we can identify the factors that influence deterioration, such as materials, operating conditions and environmental context.
This integrated approach allows you to plan targeted maintenance and replacement interventions, minimizing operating costs and environmental impact. Accurate pipe dating is a strategic tool for ensuring the safety and sustainability of water networks, promoting proactive management based on reliable data.
