Introduction
Urban sewerage systems play a vital role in ensuring public health and sanitation. In New Karachi, growing population demands placed pressure on outdated infrastructure. To address these needs, Global Engineering Links (GEL) was tasked with providing and laying a new 12″ diameter sewer pipe, including jacking works for a major 48″ water line crossing.
Project Overview
The project focused on strengthening sewerage capacity while ensuring uninterrupted water supply lines. It required the use of advanced jacking techniques to safely install pipes beneath existing infrastructure.
Scope of Work
- Laying and jointing of high-density sewer pipes
- Jacking beneath critical infrastructure to minimize disruption
- Coordination with municipal authorities for approvals and inspections
- Full compliance with safety and environmental guidelines
Challenges and Solutions
The project’s complexity lay in working under existing 48″ water lines, where precision was critical. GEL’s team deployed specialized jacking equipment and expert technicians to carry out the work with accuracy and zero damage to existing services.
Impact
The improved sewerage system strengthened drainage capacity in New Karachi, reducing flooding risks during rains and enhancing sanitation in surrounding neighborhoods.
Conclusion
Through precision engineering and innovative techniques, GEL once again demonstrated its ability to upgrade essential urban infrastructure.
