Dewatering systems in construction

For construction dewatering projects of any scale, a properly designed dewatering system in construction is crucial. Construction dewatering involves managing groundwater and surface water at the construction site to ensure a dry and stable environment for construction to proceed. We offer tailored solutions for your dewatering requirements, including various dewatering methods and insights into the dewatering process.

Early involvement and design collaboration with your dewatering subcontractor are crucial for effective project planning and meeting deadlines, ensuring the right dewatering systems are in place. With expertise spanning excavation and construction stages, including hotels, office and residential towers, and multi-storey buildings with basements below the water table, we ensure seamless integration of your dewatering system. This proactive approach minimises environmental impact, prevents damaging construction materials, enhances site safety, optimises logistics, preserves your budget, and boosts productivity.

Roads, Drainage & Infrastructure

With numerous infrastructure upgrades and new works ongoing and planned for the city of Doha, we are well placed to provide you assistance on your roading, drainage or sewerage projects. We are currently involved in a variety of upgrade, extension and bypass projects and are providing dewatering services through trench and sump pumping and deepwell dewatering for deep sewer lines. Whether you need dewatering for micro-tunnels, attenuation tanks or pump stations, our experience provides us with the knowledge and expertise to tailor our solutions to your project-specific needs.

Railways

In various expansive metro endeavours, we’ve actively contributed to underground, surface, and elevated railway projects. From excavating deep underground stations to managing water levels in attenuation tanks, emergency exit shafts, and tunnel lines, our expertise in dewatering systems in construction ensures seamless progress regardless of your project’s specific demands.

Marine

Marine, ports and dredging projects require careful planning, control and contingencies. Due to tidal fluctuations and the ever-present risk of increased inflows due to open sea proximity, it is important to get modelling and design correct to achieve the required drawdowns. With previous and ongoing experience in the city of Lusail and construction work adjacent to the lagoon open body of water, we have the plant, equipment and technical capability to work in marine settings.<br><br>For these projects, the discharge location is predominantly direct to the sea which can be convenient from an installation perspective. However, with increasingly stringent environmental limits for discharge and concern for marine and aquatic life, parameters such as total suspended solids (TSS) and turbidity need to be designed for. With several design solutions for settling including settlement tanks, settling lagoons and clarifiers, our design team will review your requirements and select for you the most effective method to treat contaminated discharge water from your site.

Oil & Gas

Located in the largest oil and gas region in the world, the requirement for pipelines to transport these commodities is always present. Installation of oil and gas pipelines located subsurface, like any other infrastructure works will require either cut and cover &/or tunnelling and hence dewatering to ensure controlled and safe installation. Hydroserv can assess your project and guarantee an effective solution to reduce groundwater levels in your pipeline corridor. Contact us today for further details or advice.
Our integrated modelling solutions are designed to provide analysis and design throughout the entire life cycle of a dewatering project from the site investigation stage, system design and operation up to the system shut down and recovery. The services extend further to groundwater build-up review against the newly built structure. We also specialise in the analysis of dewatering system design in conjunction with groundwater cut-off structures such as diaphragm walls, secant piles, sheet piles, slurry walls, etc.

Environmental

Protection of our natural environment is an integral part of every new infrastructure and development project and every effort needs to be taken to install effective control measures. With increasing populations and economic growth, the impact of development works on our environment can be detrimental. With careful planning however and the use of suitable technologies we can preserve and protect our surroundings while also enabling construction and infrastructure works to maintain progress and schedules.

Groundwater contamination and controlled discharge are the predominant concern on many construction sites that requires attention and effective solutions. Discharge is typically disposed of off-site; to controlled water; to land or to the stormwater network, however strict discharge criteria need to be met.

Contaminants can vary from suspended solids and turbidity to coliform bacteria or elevated or decreased pH levels and hydrocarbons. There are many different contaminants and an array of solutions and technologies to treat each of these problems. No one solution fits all, but all problems can be solved and cleaner water achieved.

Remediation solutions in the form of simple add-in measures and more advanced systems are available such as:

  • flocculant blocks
  • lamella clarifiers
  • coagulants & flocculants
  • dewatering geo-bags
  • chlorination systems
  • pH adjustment
  • hydrocarbon removal (free phase & dissolved phase)

Hydroserv can offer you expert advice, designs and a range of custom solutions to solve your problem and have experience in dealing with contaminated water on projects around the Middle East, the UK, Ireland, New Zealand and South Africa.

Airports

With heightened economic progress in the region leading to increased business and tourism travel comes the requirement to expand existing airports or build new ones to meet traveller’s demands. Hydroserv has the capabilities to work alongside design and construction teams in security-sensitive areas and ensure delivery of projects is unhindered by groundwater levels. Our management team have been involved in several airport projects and would lead the design and operations teams for seamless project delivery.

Shafts & Tunnels

Skid or trailer mounted high pressure and ultra-high pressure pumps available as part of our services to our industrial customers. The pumps and waterblast systems, with fluid ends capable of pressures up to 40,000 PSI are available on a rental basis. Our range of pumps offer superior performance and quality and are easy and safe to handle. They can be used in a variety of applications including drain and sewer cleaning, pipe cleaning and heat exchanger tube cleaning. Our experienced team will ensure the right product is tailored to your application.
