Hydraulic analysis
From first principles

Independent hydraulic consulting for water transmission and infrastructure projects — steady-state network modelling and transient surge analysis, grounded in 22 years of field experience across Saudi Arabia.

Transient Analysis
Surge & Water Hammer Analysis

Rigorous transient hydraulic modelling using Bentley OpenFlows HAMMER — identifying surge risks, sizing protection equipment, and verifying pipeline pressure ratings under worst-case transient scenarios.

Deliverables
  • Transient simulation model (Bentley HAMMER)
  • Maximum and minimum pressure envelopes
  • Column separation and vapour pocket assessment
  • Surge protection sizing — vessels, air valves, control valves
  • Valve closure time recommendations
  • Technical report with findings and recommendations
Steady-State Analysis
Hydraulic Network Modelling

Comprehensive steady-state hydraulic modelling for water transmission and distribution networks — verifying pressure and velocity profiles, pump duty points, and system performance under peak and minimum demand scenarios.

Deliverables
  • Calibrated hydraulic network model
  • Pressure and velocity profiles for all scenarios
  • Pump operating point verification
  • Hydraulic grade line (HGL) plots
  • System curve and pump curve analysis
  • Technical report with design recommendations
How it works

Simple, transparent process

01
Initial inquiry
Submit your project details using the form below. I'll review the scope and respond within 48 hours.
02
Scope & data
We agree on scope and deliverables. You share pipeline data, profiles, pump curves, and design criteria.
03
Analysis
I build and run the hydraulic model, iterating until all scenarios are fully assessed and documented.
04
Report & review
You receive a full technical report. One round of review and clarification is included.
