VA Tech Wabag said that it has secured an order worth around Rs 85 crore from Nama Water Services in the Sultanate of Oman for operation & maintenance (O&M) of the Al Duqm Desalination Plant for a period of 5 years.
WABAG constructed this 8 MLD Desalination Plant over 10 years ago and was responsible for the O&M of the plant until 2018. This long-term O&M order which has been won against international competition entails O&M of the Plant, the seawater intake, and outfall systems.
The water produced from this plant will be used for domestic consumption in the Duqm & Haima areas of Al Wusta Governorate.
Subramaniam M, sales & business development director GCC said: In line with our growth strategy, this new order addition in Oman, to our already strong O&M order book provides annuity income which helps us with improved cash flow and better revenue predictability.
We thank Nama Water Services for their continued confidence in our capabilities and technical competence which has been key to winning this repeat order.
