Don't see how you can't fit an expansion loop in 65 m.

If the pipe is constrained between anchors check out the stresses. You may find that they are acceptable. Use an average temperature range not the extremes. Sydney's water supply is in DN2600 & DN3000 pipes. Flexible sliding joints were used to a custom design. It was a simple gland seal or a restrained bellows depending upon the head..
