OPWP seeks bids for Qurayat IWP

  • Oman: Wednesday, November 07 - 2012 at 04:02

Oman Power and Water Procurement Co (OPWP) has invited international consultants to express their interest in providing financial and commercial advisory services linked to the procurement of a new Independent Water Project (IWP) in Qurayat, Oman Daily Observer has reported. At 40 million imperial gallons per day (MIGD) or 180,000 cubic metres per day of desalination capacity, the Qurayat IWP is characterised as a large-sized reverse osmosis (RO) plant roughly equivalent in capacity to the soon-to-be-awarded Ghubrah IWP, which is sized at 42 MIGD. When operational in the second quarter of 2016, it will allow for potable water to be pumped to Muscat, for the first time, from the eastern side into the water grid, as opposed to the current practice of drawing water into the grid primarily from desalination plants in Barka and Sohar.
