Water Pipelines

At Ausenco, we put our ingenuity and vast pipeline engineering expertise to work delivering water pipeline transport solutions.

Our team has successfully delivered some of the largest flow and highest elevation water systems in the world. We provide a full range of services for water pipelines across the project lifecycle, from feasibility and conceptual studies, to design, construction management, commissioning, and operations.

We specialise in both long-distance high-pressure water pipelines (including desalinated and seawater transport), as well as smaller distribution systems at project sites. Our team takes a holistic approach to water supply systems, looking at intakes, desalination infrastructure, pipelines, power distribution, and all the other components required for these systems to deliver optimal solutions.

Mining operations require large quantities of water, and our team brings the expertise needed to design and optimise the complex facilities that are needed to support its transport in varying geographical conditions. This includes tailings management facilities that require integrated water recovery and transport capabilities as an integral part of the solution. Our experience and exposure to a wide range of different applications gives us a unique approach to finding solutions for challenging systems. We work with our clients to optimise their investment, delivering solutions that are cost efficient, effective, and reliable despite challenging constraints.
