Training sessions with Mark.

Mark Quartermaine Water Loss Technician, Trainer. I can teach you to become proficient in finding leaks.
Walk this way with Mark Quartermaine, to start the utility location & leak detection journey. Learn how to combine methodologies and work in different directions to prove the leak location, by more than one method. This will increase, your success rate.
Mark Quartermaine based in Western Australia started in commercial plumbing 35 years ago and has continued to grow his expertise, as a commercial supervisor, commercial contracts administrator, commercial estimator, continually seeking new ideas and developing knowledge. For the past 20 years I have been carrying out commercial water loss investigations.
About 9 years ago I met with Anthony Johnstone at the inaugural Australian Standards building in Sydney. This was when an Aust. Standard was being developed for utility location, in Australia.
I had been involved in Active Leak Control surveys, with various water utilities in Western Australia, for the 10 years prior to meeting Anthony Johnstone from AccessDetection. I had been travelling to all areas from the Esperance in the south, to Derby in the north and all areas in between. Helping to save millions of litres of lost Non-Revenue Water annually.

Also, my leak detection work & training journey, took me to NSW, Queensland, Northern Territory, Victoria working for various water utilities. I have been actively involved in commercial leak detection, on mine sites, salt, iron ore, gold and nickel, work camps, desalination plants, fire systems, hospitals and schools. Having worked for the biggest companies in Australia, with a high level of safety implementation, combined with a high success rate, using multiple methodologies.

Training (Module One)

2 Hour's duration

If you can not find the pipe, how can you find the leak?

How to identify the service pathway if you can not identify the pipe location you are just randomly searching for the leak location.

Introduction into electromagnetic field [EMF] locating.

Types of equipment used, EMF locator, Acoustic Thumpers, Traceable rods, Sondes, infra-red & GPR.

Training (Module Two)

2 Hour's duration

Check list for leak detection.

How to adjust the methodology to suit the application [not all leaks are created equally]

Introduction to Acoustic methodology, Acoustic is one of the quickest methods of leak detection after observation.

Introduction to thermal, infra-red [IR] leak detection.

Training (Module Three)

2 Hour's duration

Commercial Leak Detection [module one & two should be completed prior to module three]

Administering compressed air [78% N2 21% O]

Administering Tracer Gas [95% N2 5% H2]

Combining methodologies to pinpoint the leak.

Safety in administering pressurised gas.

To measure is to know

A key misconception amongst many leak detection proponents is that utility location and measurement of water loss and static head are not all intrinsically related.

I have taken my training service to another level by providing a training ground with simulated leaks. Combined with a multi-layer approach of learning using a Power Point presentation with notes supplied. Combined with free on the phone support after completing the 3 modules.

Learn how to conduct leak detection in WA, with proven methodologies.
Learn how to combine methodologies, to improve your success, remember not all leaks are created equally. Many operatives fail to understand this and give up the journey.
