Northumbrian Water's Ovingham Raw Water Pumping Station (RWPS) is an abstraction station located on the north bank of the River Tyne in South Northumberland between the towns of Wylam and Ovingham. The station provides raw water from the River Tyne to Horsley Water Treatment Works (WTW) and the Great Southern Reservoir at Whittle Dene WTW. Treated water is then pumped to Birney Hill Reservoir and supplies the City of Newcastle upon Tyne and Tyneside with a population in excess of 800,000.
The current project here involves the installation of new vertical turbine pumps and variable speed drive to avoid problems caused by silt uptake. The company involved is Mott MacDonald Bentley (MMB).
