Challenge 1: Water ingress into the work area through damaged existing pipes
Uncontrolled water ingress through damaged pipes can flood the work area, hindering progress and jeopardising safety.
Solutions
Establishing suitable pumping solutions to ensure all excavations remained relatively dry. -
Challenge 2: Time constraints due to full shut downs of the scheme
Full shutdowns impose tight time constraints, requiring efficient resource management to meet critical deadlines.
Solutions
This required the increase of physical resources to ensure that shut downs were kept to a minimum. -
Challenge 3: Working in the vicinity of underground Ergon Energy assets
Working near underground Ergon Energy assets increases the risk of service disruption or damage if not properly managed.
Solutions
Service locations via vacuum truck were undertaken to ensure no clashes with third party services.
