The programme area includes asset location, distribution operation and maintenance strategies (DOMS) and pipeline innovation. UKWIR developed a £10 million programme of work 'Minimising Streetworks Disruption' to improve knowledge of underground assets. Other areas of research include pipeline materials and contaminated land. Leakage projects have built around the landmark 1994 'Managing Leakage' report with UKWIR's comprehensive update in 2011. The leakage projects have been prioritised to help water companies reduce leakage to their economic levels.

BQ08-C04 Common definition and calculation of Asset Health Project Status Project Commenced There is some inconsistency across the industry in understanding the scope of the “asset health” concern raised by Ofwat and the National Infrastructure Commission. This project will develop an agreed set of definitions for relevant aspects of asset health from operational maintenance through to overall replacement rates. This will help to provide a broadly accepted approach to quantifying the scale of any asset health problem across the industry. The project will also look to identify and address areas where a common approach may be required, such as nominal asset lives. This project builds upon the 2020 UKWIR Asset Health measures project. |
