(POIs) on behalf of water companies, alerting field technicians directly, so they can head straight to site with high confidence that a leak will be found, thereby reducing the need for inhouse data analysis.
The LeakNavigator package uses acoustic loggers from the cutting-edge Enigma range, which are installed following an assessment of the targeted DMA, undertaken by Ovarro’s leakage analysts. This process establishes the most suitable equipment to install, the unit numbers required, and the best locations for optimum efficiency. The service can also apply to existing Enigma logger fleets already installed.
Once the loggers are in operation, Ovarro’s teams undertake ongoing data analysis, sending POIs directly to water company field technicians via a mobile app. The captured data, which also supports maintenance targeting, is processed, and presented to customers in a dashboard. The package also
includes a complete maintenance service, keeping the fleet of loggers up and running at all times.
Leaks found within four days
Within four working days of Thames Water’s initial DMAs coming online, the first leaks were passed to the field teams. This process continues, with Ovarro working closely with Thames Water’s leakage detection partners Hydrosave and PN Daly, ensuring each leak is detected first time and that all outputs are recorded in a weekly report profile for the leakage team at Thames Water to review. Volume reduction remains key to Ovarro’s performance and is monitored in partnership with Thames Water.
Ovarro has a unique code provided for Thames Water’s leaks, which can be tracked online. All leaks are active until they are repaired, maintaining control of the outputs from each technician and the methodology used for the detection activity.
Ovarro takes complete ownership of the data analysis and leak detection process, working in collaboration with water companies and their partners, with results- driven accountability. The service allows leakage teams
