Our Solution
The core problem we solve
Non-Revenue Water
One of the major challenges facing water utilities is the high level of water loss in distribution networks.
Causes: Non-revenue Water (NRW) can occur through physical losses from leaking and broken pipes, which are caused by poor operations and maintenance, the lack of active leakage control, pilferage, and poor quality of underground assets.
Effects: High levels of NRW lead to low levels of efficiency. When treated water is lost, water collection, treatment and distribution costs increase water sales decrease, and substantial capital expenditure programs are promoted to meet the ever-increasing demand. Environmental sustainability is sacrificed as we lose precious water resources.
Therefore, reducing NRW is important to overall efficiency and financial sustainability, since it provides additional revenues and reduces costs.
Challenges in solving this problem
Over the last 20 years, many organizations from around the world have developed tools and methodologies to help utilities evaluate and manage water losses.
However, most water utilities do not have adequate monitoring systems for assessing or locating water losses. The result is that data on NRW is usually not readily available and even unreliable.
Moreover, the costs to locate the leaks are extremely high and the procedures are complicated. Annual cost per mile of leak detection depends on the technology used but typically ranges from $500 to over $10,000 per year and produces varying results. Many solutions require substantial initial costs and can take years to implement. (For example, only in Asia, $2 billion would have to be invested annually in water loss reduction projects).

Pipeline Map
Get a comprehensive look at your system’s layout, dimensions, materials, and more. Visualize Node Pressure and Pipe Flow for a complete understanding of your network.
Real-time Report
A daily update of anomalies/ leak predictions in the pipeline network and an automated daily report identifying pipeline anomalies, locations, and addresses.
Non-Revenue Water Dashboard
Keep track of your utility’s performance over time with our Non-Revenue Water Improvement Reports.
Generate Work Orders
Input specific details about the targeted DMA you want to repair, and the system will instantly generate a comprehensive work order that’s ready for printing.
GAILL scored 100% in leak detection accuracy in a challenging, intermittent water supply system
GAILL uses your existing pipe map, alongside pressure/flow measuring points and additional devices, combined with time series PC/AMR data. With this info, GAILL figures out where leaks, blockages, and problems are happening between different pipe junctions.
GAILL only gets smarter
As anomalies are resolved, GAILL adapts and learns, honing its capabilities for future anomaly detection. This gives you a comprehensive tool to manage your pipeline network. And if you want even more accuracy, GAILL suggests where to put temporary sensors.
