Contract Awarded for Major Water Treatment Facility in Saudi Arabia

Douglas OHI has been selected by Fisia Italimpianti (Webuild Group) to undertake the civil works for a new seawater reverse-osmosis desalination facility located 240 km north of Dhahran in the Arabian Gulf. The contract encompasses a wide range of construction activities, further solidifying Douglas OHI’s position as a leader in the industry. This selection highlights the company’s expertise and dedication to delivering high-quality civil engineering solutions.

The facility will be equipped with a cutting-edge water de-gassing system designed to extract, compress, and transport gas from incoming water to its final destination. A sophisticated water treatment and filtration section will then clarify and reduce the solid content in the water, preparing it for reinjection into oil wells. This ensures that the treated water meets the stringent quality standards required for use in the oil field, demonstrating the facility’s technical excellence.

Douglas OHI’s scope of work includes critical tasks such as excavation, backfilling, concrete placement, rebar installation, and formwork for various foundations and buildings. Additionally, the construction will involve key components like clarifiers, effluent, and influent tanks, along with the implementation of structural steelwork, coatings, and roadworks. These elements are vital for the seamless operation and efficiency of the water treatment process.

This initiative is integral to supporting the long-term sustainability of the region by providing a reliable source of clean water. The advanced treatment processes and reinjection system contribute to the responsible management of water resources, aligning with broader environmental goals. The facility not only addresses the increasing water demands but also symbolizes a commitment to sustainable development in a region full of potential.
