BULK WATER Services for Tahoka, TX

Ørsted operates two major wind projects in Lynn County: the 300-megawatt Tahoka Wind farm, which began commercial operations in 2019 and provides power under a corporate PPA with Merrill Lynch, and the 338-megawatt Sage Draw Wind project straddling Garza and Lynn counties under a PPA with ExxonMobil (Orsted), establishing Lynn County as one of the most wind-energy-dense counties in West Texas with over 600 combined megawatts of operational capacity located directly within Tahoka's immediate service area. Both wind projects involve active long-term operations and maintenance programs, transmission infrastructure, substation monitoring, and the kind of periodic access road and facility maintenance that requires sustained non-potable water access across an expansive turbine footprint that spans thousands of acres of South Plains terrain. Tahoka sits at the intersection of US-380 and US-87 in central Lynn County, approximately 40 miles southeast of Lubbock, placing it on the South Plains agricultural and energy infrastructure corridor where the region's wind generation capacity, active upstream oil and gas program, and proximity to the Permian Basin's northern producing flank attract continuous contractor activity across multiple sectors simultaneously. Wind farm operations and maintenance programs, gathering system upkeep, and any turbine repowering or component replacement programs generate ongoing demand for bulk water to support access road stability, heavy equipment operations, dust suppression along unpaved turbine access roads, and crew support across job sites that are often miles from the nearest potable supply. The long-term operational nature of Lynn County's installed wind capacity means that water sourcing needs do not follow a single construction cycle but recur across years of O&M activity, creating a persistent demand environment that makes confirmed supply relationships more valuable than project-by-project sourcing. Water Runner provides TCEQ-licensed bulk water delivery with the fleet capacity and South Plains operational reach to support Tahoka-area wind operations, oil and gas field programs, and all associated infrastructure maintenance and construction from first site entry through completion.
