Largest Water Public-Private Partnership In North America

bar-wrapped and steel pipe

In 2019 Thompson Pipe Group completed manufacturing of concrete and steel pipe for the largest water public-private partnership in North America.

Pipe Selection
The project required 54” and 60” bar-wrapped (C303) and steel pipe, respectively. The majority of the line is bar-wrapped pipe. C303 is common in Texas and throughout other parts of the region. Benefits include:

  • Corrosion resistance
  • Available diameters
  • Affordable installation
  • No welding required during installation

Additionally, our circular O-ring gasket provides a highly dependable positive joint seal:

  • Made of high quality synthetic rubber with high tensile strength
  • Extruded to exacting tolerances
  • Measured volumetrically for 100% fill
  • The gasket fits within a precisely shaped spigot groove and is completely confined when the joint is made.

Project Details
The 140-mile San Antonio Water System Vista Ridge Pipeline extends from Burleson County to San Antonio. The project expanded San Antonio’s water supply by 20%.

Additionally, SAWS developed the project to:

  • Protect the Edwards Aquifer
  • Prepare for drought
  • Support future prosperity

The project received multiple awards:

  • Water Deal of the Year, 2017  Global Water Intelligence (GWI)
  • North America Water Deal of the Year, 2017  IJGlobal
  • North America Water Deal of the Year, 2017  Project Finance International (PFI)
  • Best Utilities Project, Gold Award, 2017  P3 Bulletin
