Replacement of Main Valves for the Manbij Water Network
Our company, Hamza Abbas Company, has entered into a contract with a humanitarian organization on December 23, 2021, to undertake the replacement of the main valves for the Manbij water network. This replacement is necessary due to the expiration of their designated lifespan and their inability to fulfill their functions effectively.
Following consultation with the Manbij Water Authority, the locations of the main valves in the city were determined through detailed plans created by our team of engineers and technicians, in collaboration with the Water Authority.
The process involved excavating the sites until reaching the old valves, which were then carefully dismantled and replaced with new valves. The procurement of the new valves was carried out in accordance with the specified technical specifications, ensuring that the gate, bonnet, gate valve, driving wheel, shaft, shaft base, bonnet gasket, and flange dimensions and drilling met the required standards. The flanges were drilled to withstand either 10 or 16 pressures, depending on the specific requirements.
Thorough testing was conducted, including pressure tests, operational pressure checks, and temperature assessments, all performed in accordance with the specified standards. This rigorous testing was essential to ensure the new valves were functioning properly and free from any leaks or defects before they were covered.
Great care was taken during the covering process to ensure the valves were protected and their lifespan extended. Our team of specialized civil engineers and water engineering experts, both from our company and the partnering organization, worked diligently to deliver a high-quality result, employing their expertise to carry out precise installations and conducting thorough pressure testing to prevent any water leaks.
The project was completed within the agreed-upon timeframe and budget. Upon completion, a committee consisting of knowledgeable individuals with experience in this field was present to conduct a thorough inspection and acceptance of the work performed.
By replacing the main valves in the Manbij water network, we have improved ist efficiency and reliability, ensuring the delivery of clean and safe water to the residents of the city.
