JD7’s combination of High Definition CCTV and Hydrophone will enable utilities to perform asset condition assessment and leak detection at the same time.
Blue Gold Technology, one of the leading leak detection companies in the GCC, has signed an exclusive five-year license agreement with UK-based JD7 for their internal pipe inspection equipment.
Jeremy Llewellyn, CEO, Blue Gold said: “We are very pleased to have secured this exclusive relationship as there is tremendous demand for internal trunk mains inspection in the region. It is an excellent complement to our existing leak detection portfolio comprising Gutermann and Technolog products.”
Llewellyn explained that JD7’s combination of High Definition CCTV and Hydrophone allows one to perform asset condition assessment and leak detection at the same time. He continued, “The flagship LDS1000 provides internal CCTV and leak inspection capabilities for 1,000-metres in pipe diameters over 300mm. This will provide major benefits to utilities who have limited options for equipment that can assist them with their trunk mains asset management.”
The technology is of major advantage to utilities who have limited options for equipment when it comes to managing their trunk mains
‘Pipe Investigator’ is the mini-version of the same technology for smaller diameter pipes. “This type of technology is attractive because it can either use exiting entry points like valves, fire hydrant or washouts or can enter through hot tappings, so there is no need to interrupt the service during the actual inspection,” said Llewellyn.
