Australia’s biggest
When a regional water authority tendered a contract to build
Australia’s biggest pressurised water pipeline, little did they
realise they’d get a contractor who could not only do the job,
but fast track it cutting more than seven years from the initial
construction estimation.
Combining the experience of a staff of highly skilled pipeline
project managers, engineers, surveyors and designers, and
Mitchell Water’s fleet of specialised equipment fitted with
GPS machine control technology ensures contracts are
delivered with speed and grade precision.
Welcome to Australia’s biggest pipeline construction
contract, the Wimmera Mallee Pipeline Project. Designed and
constructed by Mitchell Water.
Letting Mitchell Water construct the Wimmera Mallee project
shaved years off the construction time, saved millions of
dollars and delivered water to drought affected families and
farmers across almost 10 per cent of Victoria in record time.
