Irrigation Pressure Pipeline in Thrac

However, summer rainfalls are not sufficient for this agricultural abundance and a concrete irrigation system had therefore been built somewhat 30 years ago, bringing water from the river Striama and the Pyasachnik to supply the town Chirpan. At the end of 2008 and with the decision of Bulgaria’s Ministry of Environment and Water, a project was initiated to rehabilitate approximately 2.1 km of the line close to the town Rakovski. It was decided to utilize HOBAS® CC-GRP Pipe Systems DN 500, PN 6, due to the products’ high quality, long lifetime, excellent hydraulic characteristics, long term static properties and their simple and fast installation. 15 km away from the construction site and a small special truck had to transport one after the after to the site. Reason for this was that the road was far away from the construction site and the site itself lay between a wide wheat field and an impressively large vineyard. Thanks to the outstanding cooperation of the Bulgarian contractor Lomstroy, who is specialized in hydraulic applications, HOBAS Bulgaria and the production facilities in Czech Republic and Romania, the first 500 m part could be installed within a week only.
