TRILITY is an Australian company committed to being the ‘provider of choice’ when it comes to water and wastewater services. We understand that value can be created from scale. Bigger water infrastructure assets and larger markets generate better returns. Controlling multiple assets saves money and valuable resources. Owning a diverse set of assets spreads risk, but scale alone is not the whole story. Success in the water industry means integrated know-how and a one-company mindset can overcome the challenges of complexity and distance.

Client SA Water

Type of contract Operate and Maintenance (O&M)

Facilities 1 desalination plant

Technology Reverse Osmosis (RO) seawater desalination Wastewater - biological nutrient removal Design capacity 100 GL per annum, with capacity to deliver up to 300 ML/d (100 billion litres a year)

Term 20 years

Capital cost $1.83b

SnapshotThe Adelaide Desalination Plant (ADP) is a leading edge desalination facility with the capacity to supply up to 100 billion litres of drinking water a year, this equates to about half of Adelaide’s current water needs.

At a cost of $1.83b, the process design and technology employed at the facility boasts a Reverse Osmosis (RO) solution that delivers a highly efficient potable water recovery ratio of the seawater extracted, significant energy savings and a smaller plant footprint.

The asset management challenges for the 20 year Operations and Maintenance (O&M) contract include:

• Managing a significant number of high technology process and instrumentation assets and complex integrated control systems

• Dealing with corrosive brine solutions and corrosive marine environment

• Safely maintaining assets operating under high pressure conditions

• Operating and maintaining assets to minimise energy costs

Lessons learned by TRILITY and its Joint Venture (JV) partner from designing, constructing, operating and maintaining other treatments plants have been employed into the design of this facility through the early involvement of O&M in the design phase and procurement process. This will ensure the best whole of life outcome for the assets and ultimately the client during the O&M phase.

Extensive use is made of offline and online condition monitoring technologies to continuously understand the condition of the assets and any required intervention.

A complete asset management and maintenance management system was part of the O&M deliverables utilising a client specified system.

Term 5 Years

Capital cost N/A

SnapshotThe Seqwater (formerly LinkWater) network includes 535km of potable bulk water pipelines, from Noosa on the Sunshine Coast to Tugun on the Gold Coast. New pipelines under construction will expand this asset base to more than 600km of potable bulk water pipelines and related infrastructure consisting of 22 pump stations, 29 reservoirs and 31 water quality facilities.

TRILITY were engaged directly by Seqwater (formerly LinkWater) to review and verify the existing Annual Maintenance Plan (AMP) for current and new assets by applying the risk based maintenance methodologies suggested in the Maintenance Management Plan (MMP). The MMP had been recently revised by TRILITY prior to being audited by the Queensland Water Supply Regulator in 2011.

Outcomes of this work included:

• Updated asset register• Complete set of risk based maintenance

strategies for selected pump stations and water quality facilities including cost and resource allocation to enable an activity based budgeting approach

• New maintenance strategies compared to existing to highlight potential changes in cost base

• Review of recent maintenance history highlighting surplus capacity that could be mothballed and assets that were being under or over serviced

Seqwater (formerly LinkWater) and Operations Maintenance Joint Venture (OMJV) staff were engaged during the asset criticality scoring process to ensure that local knowledge was used to ascertain the correct score.

The Riverland Water Project delivers drinking water to approximately 150,000 people living in more than 90 communities located mainly along the banks of the River Murray in South Australia. A total of 10 advanced water filtration plants provide 272 ML/d (combined) treated water to the Adelaide Hills, Barossa Valley, and Mid Northland River Murray towns. TRILITY is responsible for the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) of these plants over a 25 year term.

While 10 treatment plants of similar design offers advantages for asset management such as the faster generation of history, there is added complexity by having to manage a significantly larger portfolio of smaller assets spread over a large geographical area. Lessons learnt on one plant can be quickly adapted to the decisions required on other plants.

Asset management and maintenance management costs are fixed for the contract term, requiring the extensive use of:

• whole of life asset refurbishment, replacement and maintenance models

• activity based budgeting• risk based approach to maintenance and

renewals/refurbishment activities to ensure that the right assets are maintained and replaced at the right time and continue to deliver the required levels of service and return on investment
