HD151018 is a normal O-type giant with periodic variability of the wind seen in both spectroscopy and linear polarimetry. The characteristics of the wind emission strongly indicate a magnetically confined wind. This work presents the observational results and an initial modelling of the polarimetric modulation of this star.
