A digital twin is a virtual representation of an object, system or process that ideally spans its lifecycle. Using machine learning and simulation to analyse real-time data, a digital twin can help with problem solving and decision making. The emergence of Digital Twinning technology has presented the opportunity to provide advanced telemetry systems, powered by hydraulic models for the water network to rival traditional SCADA systems.
Our digital twin VariSim Delta powered by high-quality sensors within pipeline inspection and repair equipment allows MWS to provide a solution which will identify the root cause of network issues. Our digital solutions allow network operators to provide sustainable levels of leakage reduction, extend asset life, improve the quality of water, keep customers in supply, reduce supply interruptions and provide efficient water consumption in water stressed areas.
Hydraulic Analysis Limited - VariSim Delta & Digital Twinning.
Digital Twins are data agnostic and can absorb existing customer data from smart meters or billing information, leakage detection equipment such as acoustic and pressure loggers, and monitor District Meter flows. Processing millions of calculations a minute, real time systems can predict residual asset life, spot restrictions, pressures transients or predict future bursts. Coupled with our high-quality sensor array we can also monitor water quality, temperature, pH, and sheer stress, allowing us to not only monitor the pipe network but also the age, distribution and quality of water supplied to customers.
Digital networks ‘Ecosystem’ started with the creation of our Digital Twin VariSim Delta in 2020. Created by our exclusive technical partner, Hydraulic Analysis Group. There 50 years of hydraulic expertise paired with over 10,000 hydraulic projects has seen their knowledge and experience incorporated into VariSim Delta.

Intellitect Water Insight family - Telemetry and High-Quality Sensor Arrays
Morrison Water Services are the exclusive technical partner for Intellitect Water, providers of ‘Insight’ and the ‘Intellisonde’ range of products. Our chosen products for retrieving data from the water network, providing data to VariSim Delta. The Intellisonde family of products provide Trunk and Distribution mains monitoring in real time.
The unique modular design of the Intellisonde allows for the base unit to be deployed as a transient pressure logger which can then be upgraded to a flow and pressure probe or as a water quality device. The new sensor array allows for our digital twin to come to life and our devices work in unison with existing client devices.
Data from the Insight telemetry system is available on mobile devices and tables through the Insight app.

Why Digital Ecosystems?
Our systems and products aim to stretch the imagination of what is possible, utilising a combination of deep learning algorithms, Digital Twins, and high-quality sensor arrays. All working together to spot patterns and learn from outcomes.
We want to help you through digital transformation, allowing us to speed up processes, improve safety and help protect the environment. Continuously innovating in collaboration with our clients to use digital solutions to solve challenges you may be facing.
A digital twin solution like ours has the potential to reduce the carbon footprint of operation. Therefore, it is now becoming a quickly adapted process within the water industry. Saving water, a vital resource for our future is a collective responsibility and is a message we are spreading across all users. The ESG responsibility can be articulated through our digital ecosystem and innovative vision, ambitious in its concept but is rapidly turning into reality.
