Project summary

Stoba International was appointed to review the performance of a number of dewatering systems operational in the direct vicinity of the sea on this project. The dewatering systems were unable to achieve the required drawdown

Following the existing site data review, further hydrogeological investigations were specified and carried out. A detailed design of a  dewatering system was done and ultimately installed on site. The works extended into the ongoing dewatering system performance review and data analysis.
