Research and development

Research and development of technologies aimed at the minimization of Non-Revenue Water

Aganova’s R&D Department is made up of a multidisciplinary team of engineers who research new technologies and developments for the continuous optimization and innovation of our services.

At Aganova we welcome suggestions and contributions from customers to improve our technologies. Our projects focus on developing cutting-edge technologies in the sector, applied to the needs shared by our clients.

We are currently working on:

  • Multiple sensors in the Nautilus sphere.
  • Nautilus for network diagnostics.
  • Greater autonomy during sphere insertion and extraction.
  • Development of algorithms to expand data interpretation.

Test bench

Aganova has a 180-meter test bench with different diameters along its path including points of conflict, such as blind T and Y junctions and the possibility of causing leaks and anomalies.

In it, we test all the technologies developed at Aganova and study different problems found in customer networks with the aim of providing new solutions.

R&D PROJECTS

PROJECT TITLE:  NAUTILUS4WORLD

PROJECT GOAL: The overall goal of the project is to redesign the Nautilus system so that it can be used safely, efficiently and with ease in any pipeline worldwide, making the system standard for international use. In addition, a new Web platform will be developed through which inspections can be managed and where clients can consult all their information. The Platform will process the gathered data securely and will interpret data of great interest to the water sector.
