BWEL have a long history of suppling equipment for critical civil infrastructure like dams, ports, power stations, waste management, universities and museums. We have supported infrastructure projects since the late 1800s, beginning with the fabrication of the main bridge sections for the Burnett River Bridge, which most of our staff in Bundaberg drive across every day. Some other large infrastructure projects include; the Hydro turbine for Barron Gorge hydro-electric power station as well as barrage gates and winch mechanisms for Fitzroy River barrage and North Pine Dam. BWEL’s capacity for large-scale fabrication and machining has been utilised across many industries including power stations, water treatment facilities, dams, pipelines, ports, rail and bridges.
BWEL were engaged in this project as the salt water manifold was in need of replacement. The manifold had no detail or arrangement drawings. The original mild steel was significantly corroded material upgrade to a duplex stainless steel was made.
