Skid Mounted Water Tank and Pump: Custom-Built Systems for Remote Water Supply 2025

When you’re operating in remote or rugged terrain—whether it’s a mining lease, agricultural site, or emergency response zone—you need equipment that can take a beating, stay mobile, and do the job without fail. Enter the skid mounted water tank and pump system: a self-contained, transportable unit that delivers reliable water supply exactly where you need it.
At MultiTorque, we build fully custom skid-mounted pump and tank systems for clients across Australia. Whether you’re tackling dust suppression, dewatering, or livestock watering, we can design a unit tailored to your site conditions and capacity requirements.
🔍 What Is a Skid Mounted Water Tank and Pump?
A skid mounted water tank and pump system is a fully integrated unit that includes:
- A water storage tank (various sizes available)
- A high-performance water pump
- Skid base with forklift pockets or lifting lugs
- Hoses, valves, and fittings

Mounted on a durable steel frame, these systems are designed to be forkliftable, crane-lifted, or truck-mounted for quick deployment across tough worksites.

- Lower maintenance and better site security
- Modular design—can add more tanks or pumps later

Every component is chosen with durability, serviceability, and compliance in mind.
