Can you guys state the location whenever you report areas with disrupted water supply?

Anyhow newd diver assess dulu then tomorrow see which option available. But expect min 4-5 days for full recovery for dbd area

Bukan replacement but 2x600mm temporary & fastest solution while waiting for the permanent one over the river.

fastest & cause least inconvenience.

Its basically no water or low pressure water

Very simple decision, temporary of course

Can start plan for 4-5 days holiday if u are eol

I heard its gonna be 5-6days at least

It cant, due to the time constraint this close to 2mil project is a temporary mitigation but atleast this one can last longer but ofcourse the the combined volume is smaller than the initial one but the existing pipe really cannot tahan already so have to go for this.

Pressure need to increase with the faster flow rate, they cannot just keep on increasing pumping pressure and flow rate. Most likely will need to reduce a bit of pumping pressure if they do not want the new smaller pipes to burst too.

just a random figure i googled


edit:
from the picture, take for example 40 psi,
big pipe ~230 gpm
2xsmall pipe ~2 x 50 gpm

if you want to maintain the flow rate at 2 x 100 gpm, the pressure in the smaller pipes would go > 100 psi.

so yeah, most likely they will need to reduce the pressure a bit.

in practice, the frictional losses would also reduce some of it.

by the looks of it , I guess this will be the longest water cut, since to wait for diversion pipe to complete, it requires at least 5-6 days (cky page sos). And alot of people in DBD did not prepare for this round.
gg barat daya, i hope we survive this.

Landed or high rise?

If new high rise projects should be able to tahan few days, if not fully occupied

Latest update from PBAPP facebook:

Friday / Saturday will have water, Tuesday (30 Jan) cut again for connecting new temporary bypass pipe, 1st Feb should solve this issue temporary until the new 1350mm pipe is ready (at least half a year later)

Low pressure water, i also feel weird how come got water?
Is possibly can let low pressure water flow thru the pipe while clamping?

Honestly plan B should have done no matter plan A works or not

Sg perai water full of aninals waste, fkkk

Double check ur incoming water, some of my friends saying its not really clear waters, slightly yellowish

So better take mineral water for drinking for the time being
Especially if ur house had old ppl or babies

On the night when we isolate sg perai pba did valve throttling to all the reservoir on island thats why some area not effected also got low pressure or no water for a couple of hours.

Now the storage at bukit dumbar already reach safe level to be pumped out to green lane and relau side. Butt of course if people use more water then storage deplete then water will cut off again to allow the storage to be fill up to a safe level before can release.

As for some in sg ara, batu maung and balik pulau still need to rely tanker.

Hopefully clamping work can be completed tonight

Sorry bro, this technical question i tak dapat answer. Once the storage is too low the pumps will stop automatically.

Pba monitoring system is quite canggih one

I thought CKY says Plan A was completed at 4pm on Thur 25th ?  Why at 10pm still "Plan A 1in progress"  ?

BUTTERWORTH: Work to fix the clamps to repair the leak in the 1,350-millimetre (mm) underwater pipe in Sungai Perai here is expected to be completed by 4 pm today, said Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow.

This is despite the difficulties faced by the divers, who have to deal with the strong current at the bottom of the river.

Any reason why that stretch of water main was installed underwater? Technically difficulty? Cost saving?

If they able to clamp the broken pipe which means the pipe itself is not buried in soil but just underwater level?
