The W-Line is a 900Nb pipeline located at the Contact energy Wairakei Power Station, Taupo.
A new 900NB reinjection pipeline was required to transport the additional reinjection water produced by the new Te-Mihi Power Station to the Otupu reinjection wells located beside the main Taupo bypass highway.
The pipeline followed a difficult route between the side of the highway and Prawn Park, over a creek and through several culverts including a culvert under the main highway.
Warner Construction completed W-Line pipeline on time, to budget with no quality issues and with an excellent safety record of no incidents.
