1 Microtunneling Short Course 2015 Microtunneling Drive for Mixed Layers in Singapore / Japan Noboru Kiyota- Rasa Corporation, Japan

2 Record First shipment on Rasa Micro tunneling machine for overseas was effected to Singapore in USA Japan Korea Taiwan Hong Kong China Singapore Malaysia Thailand Indonesia Sri Lanka Oman Qatar India

3 Machines for Long Drive & Complex Layers For long driving in complex layer, the machines and the concerned equipments have been improved and built up complying with the jobsite requirements for recent years. Since Rasa have already supplied more than 300 sets of microtunneling machines to overseas market for complex layers, among of them, specially we have shipped most advanced machines for each year to Singapore (totally more than well over than 100 sets for recent 20 years to Singapore) although Singapore is very small Island with population approx. 5.4 million people. So why so many project on Segmental-shield machines and Microtunneling machines have been effected in Singapore.

4 Johor: the Causeway / Pipeline Johor, Boarder of Singapore / Malaysia

5 Boarder (Johor, Causeway) between Singapore and Malay (Bridge : Highway and Pipeline)

6 Water Resources in Singapore Statutory Board in Singapore PUB - Public Utilities Board - A statutory board under the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources. PUB is responsible for the collection, production, distribution and reclamation of water in Singapore. - New water (treated by the Centralized Water Reclamation Plant) - DTSS (big tunnels of 6 meters in diameter ) First phase DTSS : Eastern region flowing into a Bit Treatment plant in Changi (50km of DTSS & about 100km of link sewers) Second phase DTSS : Western region flowing into a Big Treatment plant in Tuas (30km of DTSS & about 80km of link sewers) LTA - Land Transport Authority HDB - Housing Development Board SP - Power & Gas -

7 Treatment plant Cluster in Singapore Tuas WRP (DTSS Phase 2) (Changi WRP DTSS Phase 1)

8 DTSS (Deep Tunnel Sewage System) the backbone of NEWater Production) NEWater: a name of water that is filtered through a process from sewerage waste to become NEWater (this is a name only in Singapore) The DTSS are big tunnels of 6 meter in diameter & is co called the highway of Singapore Sewage pipeline.. Link sewers flow into the main DTSS pipeline which are then catch up by the Centralized sewerage treatment plant. Sewage pipeline (dia m) tenders are called by PUB sewage department. NEWater pipelines holds & transfers New water from treatment plant to Open Reservoir to be mixed with natural rain water catchment area. NEWater pipeline projects (dia m) tender are called by PUB water dpt.

9 DTSS (Deep Tunnel Sewage system) & consist of 6 meter large diameter pipe line at abut 40-50meters below ground level)

10 NEWater recycling system for political/ environmental/ national security reasons Water Loop System for Saving Water

11 Rasa DHL-1500 with Face Access (O.D.1800mm= 71 ) for Link Sewer Line project by PUB

12 Drawing for DHL-1500 machine for Hard soil Layer

13 Rasa DHI-2000 with Face Access (O.D.2430mm= 96 ) for Link Sewer Line project by PUB

14 Rasa DH-2000 machine with face access

15 Rasa DHI-2200 Machine with Face Access (O.D. 2610mm = 103 ) for New water project by PUB water Department

16 Rasa DH-1500 with Man Hole (O.D. 1810mm = 71 ) for Power Gas Pipeline, Singapore Man Hole Hatch is normally installed on over 71 size recent DH type machines

17 Access Hatch in DHI type Machine Access hatch at upper side

18 Customers like a favorite method Most of all customers and operators like a favorite method Unfortunately, Japanese equipments are normally very tough and well maintained Machines just introduced are very conventional type and aged well over 20years nearly 30years Japanese customers do not want to buy any further advanced machines, and only well modifying and improving at the job-site requirements So, in Japanese market on microtunneling, Maintenance works are only busy..

19 Rasa Conventional DT machine I.D. 2600mm for Sand /Silt/Clay (OD3060mm=120 ) produce in 198-

20 Conventional Rasa Machine O.D. 48 produced in 198-

21 Fukuoka Factory Typical Job site in Japan

22 Job site in Kumamoto Rasa DH1350 (O.D. 64 ) Operation Area, control-panel, Jack operation-board, pump board in the Starting Shaft

23 Slurry Pipe Line changing works

24 Operation-board, flow-meter, Inverter-volume for pump, etc. etc

25 Operation board for Main Hydraulic thrust Jack

26 Although the machines and equipments are aged, and not latest designs, these machines/equipments are tough, easy handle (maneuverable) and well maintenance Of course, good plan /preparation / schedule for the concerned works And well trained operator We believe that the jobs are succeeding Thank your for your attention!
