SHEFFIELD, UK -- CSE Servelec and Kuwait Controls Co. (KCC) will be helping to ensure a constant supply of drinking water to the whole of Kuwait, thanks to a contract recently awarded by Gezhouba Construction of China. The work will involve the provision of monitoring and control services for Kuwait’s entire water storage and distribution network under the administration of the Ministry of Energy Kuwait.
New equipment will be provided for the Subiya Water Distribution Complex’s Local Control Centre (LCC) that is currently under construction, the Northern Region Control Centre in Doha and the National Control Centre (NCC) in Shuwaikh. The existing SCADA system at the Southern Region Control Centre in Mina Abdullah, provided by Remsdaq, will be interfaced with the new CSE Servelec system, to provide the NCC with information about the whole of Kuwait.
CSE Servelec is to install the hardware and application software of the leak detection system throughout the entire network, while KCC will be responsible for carrying out installation and field-testing of RTUs and telecommunication equipment. CSE Servelec will equip the LCC with a Hydraulic Analysis System and plasma mimic panels for viewing and managing the pipeline on a continual basis. Information from this equipment and from other regional control centres will be transmitted to the fully manned NCC, where it will be monitored and recorded to safeguard the water supply.
A new 150km pipeline will be constructed to link a new desalination plant at Subiya Power Station to the general drinking water supply system for Kuwait. Designed to accommodate some of Kuwait’s projected population growth, Subiya lies 50 km from the Iraqi border. 50,000 residential units are to be built at Subiya, which will rely on Subiya Water Distribution complex and the associated pipelines for their clean water supply.

A desalination plant located on the north coast of Kuwait Bay prepares the local seawater for human consumption. It removes the salt from seawater, which is then carbonated, to make it compliant with world health organization recommendation for drinking water. The water is then blended with brackish water at Subiya Water Distribution Complex to add more minerals and pumped to Mutla High, before being transferred to West Funaitees, where it enters the general water network, providing drinking water for Kuwait’s population.
With more than 20 years’ experience in the design and development of real-time IT systems, CSE Servelec is now one of Britain’s leading integrators of mission-critical IT solutions. CSE Servelec’s technical expertise and approach to project management have encouraged scores of blue chip organisations to turn to the company for their control, telemetry and management information needs.
