WJ Saudi undertook sewage over pumping works as part of maintenance works at The Gardens Sewage Treatment Works in Dubai.
WJ were contracted by Hydrojet to divert incoming mains sewage from the works inlet to the neighbouring aeration tanks whilst they carried out maintenance works at the pumping station for Nakheel.
WJ installed a high performance overpumping system using two of its high capacity 400 l/s diesel suction pumps and HDPE suction and discharge lines that took sewage from the inlet chamber and distributed flows evenly between 4 no. aeration tanks. The pumps used were brand new, ultra-efficient BBA BA300k sewage pumps. They are specifically designed to handle sewage with a semi-open impeller design capable of handling solids up to 100mm. A key selling point to Hydrojet was that the pumps used nearly half the fuel consumption of those offered by other dewatering contractors which helped to reduce their costs. Further details of the pumps used can be found on technical specifications download page. Due to the sensitive nature of pumping sewage we provided 100% spare pumping capacity to ensure continuous operation, along with electromagnetic flow meters and full time supervision to monitor system performance.
The project was a great success and WJ was impressed by the professionalism of Hydrojet and look forward to working with them again on future projects.
WJ Saudi has an extensive range of pumps and pipework and continues to expand its fleet or high capacity diesel and electric pumps. Contact us today to find out how WJ can assist you with your overpumping and diversion works.

At our core, we are dedicated to providing exceptional service tailored to meet the diverse needs of our clients, ranging from straightforward residential dewatering solutions to the intricate demands of expansive national projects.
When it comes to large-scale national projects, we leverage our extensive experience and industry expertise to tackle intricate challenges head-on. Collaborating closely with clients, we develop strategic and customized solutions that not only meet but exceed expectations.
As co-authors of CIRIA C750 Groundwater Control: Design and Practice, we take pride in our extensive design capabilities. Our proficiency extends to 2D and 3D computer modeling, ensuring precision and effectiveness in crafting dewatering solutions tailored to your project's unique requirements.
Conducting thorough pumping tests allows us to intimately understand site conditions, providing valuable data for cost-effective installations and optimised program timelines. This not only reduces operating costs but also validates the original design, instilling extra confidence in both budgets and project timelines. Our commitment to comprehensive site understanding sets us apart in delivering efficient and reliable solutions.
In the pursuit of optimal dewatering solutions, we implement a spectrum of sophisticated techniques. Empirical optimisation, grounded in extensive experience and industry-established 'rules of thumb,' enables the fine-tuning of dewatering systems. Observational optimisation relies on on-site observations, particularly monitoring drawdown versus flow, providing invaluable insights for troubleshooting when ground conditions deviate from expectations.
Analytical optimisation employs precise analytical equations to estimate essential parameters for system design. Furthermore, numerical optimisation harnesses available data to populate intricate 2D and 3D models, facilitating a comprehensive analysis through a series of refined and simplified techniques. This comprehensive and strategic approach ensures the customisation of solutions tailored to the distinct requirements of each project, reflecting our commitment to professionalism and excellence..
