1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 PROPOSED STRUCTURE
1.1.1 BACKGROUND
The proposed project consists for the dewatering works for construction of Hilton Garden Inn.
The State of Bahrain consists of more than 33 islands which vary considerably in size and structure. The largest island, known as
Bahrain or Awal is 48 km long from north to south and 16 km at its broadest. The islands lie in the southwestern waters of the
Arabian Gulf, some 25 km to the east of the Saudi Arabian coast at 26°05'N and 50°33'E (Bahrain Island).
The total area of all islands is around 700 sq.km. The most recent population census was in 1992, and indicated that the total
population was 519,000. The seas around the islands are shallow and rarely exceed 20 metres in depth. Salinities range from 40
parts per thousand in the north to 60 parts per thousand in the southwest.
Bahrain is located in the core of an extensive zone of aridity, and forms part of Arabia. Geologists refer to the structure of the main
Bahrain island as that of an eocene eroded limestone dome (Doornkainp et al., 1980). The highest point of the island, located in the
middle of the island, is known as Jabal Ad-Dukhan, and reaches a height of 122.4 metres above sea level. Most of the other islands
are lowland. These include Muharraq (32 sq.km), Sitra (29 sq.km), Umm Nassan (20 sq.km) and Sawad (8 sq.km). Hawar Island (41
sq.km) and other small islets such as Hajiat and Jidda are limestone cliff islands which may exceed 20 m above sea level (Anon, 1972
& 1992a). The main island of Bahrain is composed of five distinctive physiographic regions:
2. Interior Basin
An asymmetrical ring of lowland surrounding the central plateau. The surface elevation ranges from less than 20 metres around the
basin margin up to 70 m.
3. Multiple Escarpment
A multiple escarpment rising up from the outer perimeter of the interior basin.
4. Main Backslope
The gently sloping land from the crest of the escarpment to the edge of the coastal lowlands.
5. Coastal Lowlands
This zone starts from the base of the backslope, and has an elevation of less than 10 m down to sea level. Soil studies have shown
that four soil types are present: solonchaks, regosols, vermosols and fluvisols.
2. CONSTRUCTION METHOD
2.1 PURPOSE
This method statement details the installation, operation and maintenance of the dewatering works for construction of Hilton
Garden Inn Project in Bahrain. This method statement covers the drilling, installation and operation methods for Deepwell system
including discharge arrangements.
2.2 SCOPE
The scope of work is as summarised in the following list and this involves the de-watering of the excavation to enable works to be
carried out in suitable and safe working conditions utilising a Deep Well dewatering system depending on the maximum excavation
levels. Dewatering to 1.0m below the depth of maximum excavation levels will be done on the following area.
2.3 DEFINITION
Dewatering is defined as the removal of the natural ground water to a level below the normal water table to enable excavation and
construction to be carried out in safe and suitable working conditions. The target water level for this project is 1.0m below the
excavation level. Ground water level is considered as +3.2m NSD (0.1m BGL) based on geotechnical report ref: G17-4096.
2.4 DESCRIPTION
The proposed scope is dewatering works for construction of Hilton Garden Inn Project in Bahrain. The excavation limits for the
proposed structure is approximately 81.0m X 25.5m. It is proposed to install a temporary deep well to reduce the water table level
inside the excavation area.
It is proposed to install deep wells (8 No.) inside the site perimeter. Deep wells involve the installation of perforated casing into
which submersible pumps can be lowered and operated to reduce the ground water table. Pumps shall be connected to a common
discharge header from which the water can be pumped to the approved discharge point. The perforated uPVC casings shall be
installed through the use of a rotary piling rig. Temporary casings shall be installed and cleaned into which the deep well can be
installed using a crane.
Installation of Casings
Action recommends the construction of the temporary deep well system to be carried out using a rotary piling rig to install casings
from the existing working platform level. A temporary casing 600/750mm in diameter shall be installed into the ground. Using an
auger bucket the temporary casing shall be cleaned of any drilling slurry or debris. After cleaning out of the casing the slotted
screen pipe would be installed with spacers to position the pipe in the centre of the well. The annulus between the temporary
casing and the deep well casing shall be filled with 3/8”stone to allow drainage into the screen and prevent excessive fine material
passing through into the pumping area. A temporary cover would seal the top of the screen pipe to prevent accidental insertion of
stone.
On completion the vibro hammer would be used to remove the temporary casing.
Depth of Casing
Number of Casings
(8) Nos. Temporary well casings are to be installed throughout the excavation area. The temporary casings will be unscrewed cut as
and when the excavation process and site situation necessitates.
o PUMPS
3-phase Electrical submersible pumps shall be installed within each Deepwell, with standby.
The pumps shall be connected to the main generator. It is recommended that a standby power source in the form of a
generator set be available on site in the event of power failure from the main generator. Pumps shall be connected to
control panels fitted with both Audio and Visual warning alarms. The Control panels shall be connected to a distribution
board, which is in turn connected to the generator.
o CONTROL PANELS
The control panels would be set up to connect up to (6) pumps per panel. The systems shall be monitored via an audio
and visual alarm to provide warning in the event of failure of any pump.
The piping arrangement from the pump would consist of a 3” or 4” diameter pipe. The piping would be rigid/semi-rigid
pipe to the top of the well. From the top of the well to the discharge header/discharge point, lay flat discharge hose shall
be used to allow the discharge to follow the profile of the excavation. Quick release couplings will be used to minimize the
interruption to excavation works. Two valves would be inserted on the line (1 x check valve, 1 x butterfly valve). The
butterfly valve would be connected to enable the operator to inspect the pump operation to ensure flow of water on a
timed schedule as a double check and fail safe to the alarm systems.
o DISCHARGE
The collected water produced by the ground water control system shall be discharged into a discharge header main which
feeds the water to a settlement tank arrangement prior to discharging to the final discharge point.
o INSTALLATION OF PUMPS
The pumps will be connected to discharge pipes, cables and removal ropes prior to lifting of the pumps. A test will be
carried out on the pumps electrical operation before installation. The units will be lifted up using a crane with the pipe
strapped to the lifting cable and then lowered into the PVC casing. The lifting rope will be tied off at the surface for
removal of the pump for maintenance. Wells locations will be indicated by warning tape and the casings cut to the
excavation level when required.
o WELL DEVELOPMENT
Prior to commissioning the pumping system, it is necessary to develop the deep well to ensure the safe and efficient
performance of the well. Well development provides a means by which to improve the natural permeability of the ground
around the well.
o COMPRESSED AIR
A rigid hydraulic pipe connected to a compressor is inserted into the well. The well is filled artificially with water and
compressed air is fed into the well. The compressed air will create a fountain effect which will ensure the circulation of
water through the filter material and into the well. This will ensure the removal of any dust and fines in the vicinity of the
well. This process shall be continued until the water emerging from the top of the well is free of and fines.
o PUMPING
Pumps shall be installed into the well fitted with an open discharge. The well shall be feed artificially with an external water
source to ensure that the well is at all times filled with water. Pumping continues until the water being discharged is
observed to be free from fines.
2.8 COMMISSIONING
Once complete, the dewatering system shall be started with the approval of the contractor’s representative.
During the excavation works the well height will need to be reduced. The casing lengths are generally 6m long, so if convenient, the
casings can be removed by unscrewing the casing. Otherwise they will be cut by sawing the PVC at the appropriate height. Prior to
this the pump would be stopped, removed from the well temporarily by lifting by the lifting rope and reinstalled after cutting the
well. This procedure is fast and can be done with either no or minimal water coming out of the well.
A Trench system may be constructed as an integral part of the excavation works. A network of trenches can be installed depending
upon the ground conditions. Trenches shall be interconnected and the collected water in the trenches will be channelled to the
deepwells/sumps and will be pumped out using suitable submersible pumps. The added advantage of trenches is their ability to
capture water ingress through any fissures or fractures that are encountered.
The flexible nature of the system shall allow the dewatering to be developed in parallel with the excavation. Pumps have been sized
as per our expected flow rates. However pump selection can be made in line with the actual water flows encountered or anticipated
at each level.
Deep wells at the middle of excavation will require temporary access in the base slab for routine monitoring and maintenance until
the decommissioning of system. Hence an opening shall be provided at raft slab for each well location and these well pits would be
at least 1m by 1m to allow space for the water proofing and rebar work at the closing time. Discharge pipes and electrical cables
shall be routed through a small trench underneath the blinding layer.
3. PROGRAMME
The dewatering system installation shall be dependent on the site access and working space available. The dewatering system
needs to be installed and operational before the excavation below the water table begins. After the Method Statement has been
approved, the instruction from the Main Contractor to begin mobilizing should be given. It is the intention of Action to co-ordinate
closely with the Main contractor in terms of mobilization, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of the dewatering
system.
4. DECOMMISSIONING
Decommissioning of the dewatering system requires several steps to make sure that the excavation stays dry and safe for
construction. Pumps shall be turned off and followed by a week of monitoring to make sure that the water level would not rise
to a significant level, after which wells shall be safely removed, or otherwise remain operational if the situation requires.
