A joint initiative of Gladstone Regional Council and the Gladstone Area Water Board (GAWB), the Curtis Island Water and Sewerage Infrastructure Project involves the construction of three pipelines, each of 14km in length that cross the harbour under the harbour bed to a depth of 70m below water level.
Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is being used to construct the 2.1km crossing of the Gladstone Harbour section from RG Tanna Coal Terminal at Gladstone Marina to Hamilton Point on the south-end of Curtis Island.
When completed, the pipeline project will supply potable water to the LNG proponents on the island and return their sewerage to Council’s existing sewerage treatment plant on the mainland. Included in the scope of works are a booster pump station for water supply on Curtis Island.
Scope of works included:
- Scope Engineering and Control
- Systems Integration Management
- Project Scheduling and Time Control
- Contract Lifecycle Management
- Site Superintendency and Technical Oversight
- Engineering Procurement and Logistics Coordination
- System Implementation and Commissioning
- Engineering Risk Analysis and Mitigation Strategy
