1 Non-Revenue Water Management in Cyprus Bambos Charalambous Managing Director Hydrocontrol Ltd
2 2 Water Management in Cyprus
3 Recent Water Situation in Cyprus Gradual change in the climate Substantial decrease in annual rainfall >20% Reduction in the runoff into the reservoirs > 40% Periods of low rainfall are becoming more frequent Demand is continuously increasing Frequent periods of low or no rainfall : , , Government forced to apply water restriction measures o Drastic water cuts in irrigation o Severe restrictions to domestic water supply Add Water to the National Balance: o Construction of Desalination plants: 60Mm 3 (75% of total potable needs) o Use of treated effluent for agriculture: 10Mm 3 (5% of total irrigation needs) Need for water conservation and leakage management 3
4 4 Lemesos Cyprus August m 3 /day
5 5 NRW Management Is a continuous activity Is an integral part of distribution network management Is based on a long term strategy Is cost effective especially in water scarce areas HOWEVER ITS SUCCESS DEPENDS: On commitment and dedication at all levels Adoption of appropriate methodologies and technologies Use of appropriate and reliable indicators for benchmarking, such as : litres/service connection /day and ILI
6 6 Key Performance Indicators Water Board of Nicosia YEAR % of SIV ILI Lit/conn/day Water Board of Larnaca YEAR % of SIV ILI Lit/conn/day Water Board of Lemesos YEAR % of SIV ILI Lit/conn/day
7 7 Network Design and Development
8 Major Network Developments Water Board of Lemesos Major expansion of storage and supply network Establishment of pressure zones and DMA Installation of SCADA system Pressure reduction study Installation of PRVs in 8 out of 27 DMAs Digitization of all maps of the water distribution system Review of the leakage control activities by external consultant Recommendations for the establishment of a leakage management policy to date DMA re-design and pressure management Use of advanced technology in DMA monitoring and leak detection Adoption of IWA WLTF best practice approach to NRW management Source: WBL 8
9 Key Considerations DMA categories Small : <1000 properties Medium : properties Large : properties Factors considered in DMA design Minimum variation in ground level Single entry point into the DMA Well defined DMA boundaries Area meters correctly sized and located Apply pressure management
10 Typical DMA Inlet Chamber Source: WBL 10
11 Monitoring and Data Transfer Dedicated Computer in Control Room Data Communication s / sms sent from each DMA Alarms sent to Operator s mobile phone for: o High/Low pressure o High MNF o No flow o Low battery status WWW PSTN and GSM Network PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLERS IN DMAs 11
12 Pressure Management 12 Before pressure reduction After pressure reduction Reduction in MNF Reduction in: surges and excess pressures burst rates and background leakage, cut repair costs flow rates of all leaks some components of consumption
13 13 Pipeline and Assets Management High quality materials / Proper installation High standard of maintenance Pipeline replacement using a decision support system
14 Accurate and Comprehensive Metering the first step in establishing how much water is produced and/or being used Accurate measurement of: o o o o o Water produced and/or imported Water flow to and out of treatment plants Water flow to and out of storage reservoirs Water flow into Districts Customer consumption Eliminate or minimise Authorised Un-metered Consumption 14
15 15 NRW Activities
16 Annual Water Balance (m 3 ) ( Top - Down ) Reaching the point of Accountability 16
17 Apparent Losses ( commercial losses) All customers are metered Water theft o Theft from hydrants o Meter by-passes o Tampering with meters Meter under- registration o o o Improve meter accuracy Volumetric meters Certified meter test bench Meter reading errors o o o Hand-held devices Change meter readers routes Check zero/low consumption Accounting errors o o Billing software Threshold alarms Apparent Losses = Loss of Revenue (valued at retail billing rates) Source: Rizzo and Cilia,
18 18 Real Losses ( physical losses) Main Causes are: o Ageing pipes o Damage to pipes by others o Lack of or poor maintenance o Improper installation / materials o Pressure (excess/fluctuation/transients) o Seasonal weather variations o Traffic loading and vibration o Intermittent water supply
19 Speed and Quality of Repairs Tactics: Minimize leakage run time ; Management of leak ID, location, and repair processes; Measure leak run & repair times; Quality materials specification; Quality repairs & inspection; Corrosion control Number of Pipes Repaired Response Repair Time WBL Reported leaks (34%) 243 (11%) Next day (13.5%) (55%) Same day (85%) Next two days (1.5%) House connection polyethylene House connection galvanised iron Distribution pipework 19
