(MENAFN) International heavyweights specializing in water are bidding for licenses to develop two major Independent Oman's Water Projects (IWPs) at Sohar and Barka in the Sultanate.
A total of seven firms led by prominent water utilities have submitted their offers for the two water projects, Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP) said in a statement.
Together, the two facilities represent the single biggest procurement of new water desalination capacity in the Sultanate costing a ballpark USD1 billion, say experts.
The Barka IWP, with a contracted desalination capacity of 281,000 cubic meters per day, will be the largest. The Sohar IWP will be sized at 250,000 cubic meters per day of desalination capacity.
