The West Texas oil and gas industries are still relying on water, a finite resource in the Permian Basin.
Typically, water delivery systems to oil and gas operations aren’t permanent and don’t focus on efficiency. Parkhill developed a system that allows water to be conveyed efficiently and safely, encouraging industry growth. Parkhill and Garney Construction teamed to design the $14,500,000 water transmission system to deliver a max flow rate of 250,000 barrels per day to support oil and gas operations. The project was fast-tracked, so the team had to engineer solutions to deliver this system from concept to operation in fewer than 200 days. Services included a survey of more than 50 sections of land in both the Public School Land Survey System and the University Land System in Winkler and Loving counties. Using these survey relocations, our team prepared survey easement exhibits to submit to the University Land System and staked out a pipeline alignment in the field. Survey coordination with the contractor allowed an accelerated timeline and deliverables on schedule.
