Asset Management Service
Water resources projects have very long service lives - often exceeding one hundred years. As facilities age, owners face the challenge of extending the service life and modernizing the facility to meet today’s dam safety criteria and environmental standards while maintaining operations and controlling costs. Many owners find that upgrading existing facilities also offers the most practical and cost-effective opportunity to gain additional water resources or renewable energy benefits with least permitting risk.
Keys to success include practical experience in condition assessment of hydraulic structures and equipment, expertise in evaluation of residual service life, and creativity to identify potential facility upgrade opportunities, guided by experience with successful solutions developed on other similar projects.
