Over 1,000 OSOM deliveries for Clarke Creek Wind Farm as final trucks roll in

After 1,300 oversize overmass (OSOM) components were delivered to Clarke Creek Wind Farm, it has now received its final OSOM delivery, as it pushes ahead with installing all 100 turbines.

Since September 2023 OSOM deliveries have been taken from Gladstone Port and driven overnight to Clarke Creek Wind Farm, located 150km north-west of Rockhampton and 150km south of Mackay on the land of the Barada Kabalbara Yetimarala (BKY) peoples.

Clarke Creek Wind Farm Project Director John Macchiusi said this major milestone was a testament to the team’s hard work and dedication.

“The team have meticulously managed getting more than 1,000 deliveries to site from Gladstone Port safely and on time,” Mr Macchiusi said.

“This is no easy feat. The logistics involved in just one of these deliveries is enormous. Getting all 1,300 components safely to site shows the skill and dedication of the team in charge.

“We are now ready to knuckle down and finish building the 100 turbines that will produce enough electricity to power around 330,000 Queensland homes and avoid 738,000 tonnes of carbon emissions each year.”
