Overcoming Subterranean Water Challenges
The Problem:
Persistent waterlogging in low-lying municipal zones of a Gulf region due to heavy and frequent rainfall had created a serious disruption in daily operations and public movement. The area, characterized by a large catchment and distant discharge zone, posed a major challenge to conventional dewatering efforts. The municipality had previously relied on standard 6-inch pumps, which consistently failed to handle the high volume and long discharge distance, rendering the area nearly non-functional for almost a year.
Impact:
The situation led to a near standstill in municipal services and routine community life. Streets remained submerged, sanitation deteriorated, and local businesses and homes were affected. Public confidence waned as the existing dewatering systems—comprising small-capacity pumps—struggled to meet the real-world site demands. Given the recurring rainfall and the large water catchment zone, the crisis continued without an effective resolution, highlighting the urgent need for a high-capacity and reliable pumping solution.
Pumps Used:
16 Units – CAP 3003H
Objectives:
Provide a High-Efficiency Dewatering Solution for Large Catchment Areas
Restore Normalcy and Municipal Functioning
Offer Long-Term Reliability for Rain-Prone Conditions
Reduce Operational Downtime and Public Inconvenience
