Australian Research Council has recognised water as a critical resource that must be protected from wastage. Along with water, the supply of gas to communities through extensive buried pipe networks is an essential service. As the pipe systems age, the pipe failures have increased. These failures lead to loss of valuable commodity and inconvenience and health hazard to public and workers. Effective asset management tools are urgently required in predicting and controlling pipe failures. A consortium of water and gas suppliers and a team of researchers from Monash University and CSIRO have joined forces to address this problem so that significant social and economic benefits to Australia can be realised.

澳大利亚研究理事会已经认识到水是一种重要的资源，必须加以保护，防止浪费。 沿着供水，通过广泛的地下管道网络向社区供应天然气是一项基本服务。 随着管道系统的老化，管道故障也有所增加。 这些故障导致宝贵商品的损失，并给公众和工人带来不便和健康危害。 在预测和控制管道故障方面，迫切需要有效的资产管理工具。 一个由水和天然气供应商组成的联盟以及来自莫纳什大学和CSIRO的一组研究人员已经联手解决这个问题，以便为澳大利亚带来重大的社会和经济效益。
