Sustainable Growth Driven by a Clear Master Plan Supplying Drinking Water 150 million OMR Forecasted to more than 95 of the to be spend every year on Population Development Projects The Public Authority for Electricity and Water (PAEW) In order to meet this demand, PAEW is significantly is committed to providing potable water to all investing in extending the water network residents, with the objective of supplying piped throughout the country, with an average of 150 water to more than 95% of the population within the million OMR spent every year for new water next two decades. Simultaneously, we have been infrastructures. experiencing a rapid and continuous growth of water A program for transmission line development and demand in the last few years, almost 15% increase distribution network construction is under progress, on average per year, as a result of the robust resulting in a considerable growth in customer economic and demographic growth in Oman. numbers. New reservoirs are also being built to Our aim is to develop our water services to reach all provide more storage closer to customers and the people in Oman. Meeting the rising demands is consequently improve the consistency of supply. one of the challenges PAEW is working on every day. Finally, Reverse Osmosis water plant projects are underway to expand the water production capacity and fully fulfill our customer requirements. Large Desalination Plants Construction of New Pumping Station at Ghubrah Desalination Plant PAEW continues to follow the Government’s policy of desalination plant. Once the new plant is fully Status: Implementation Stage To carry out a detailed surge analysis, verify reducing reliance on groundwater for drinking water operational this is expected to be decommissioned surge protection arrangement and installation of and the plans continue to envisage increasing and the units redeployed to other sites in Oman. Main Features of the Project: surge protection vessels and pipe work as required reliance on large scale desalination as the main by system. At Barka, of the two separate Independent Power Procurement, installation, testing and source of drinking water in Oman. Currently water is and Water Projects (IWPP) which are in operation, commissioning of complete Pumping System and taken from four major desalination sites – Ghubra, Installation of Electrical Power Supply, Barka (I) has a water production capacity of related equipments. Barka, Sohar and Sur. The first three of these serve instrumentation and Supervisory Control and Data 91,200m3/day and uses thermal desalination Acquisition (SCADA) System to control the Pumping the Main Interconnected System (or MIS) which technology, and Barka (II) has a water capacity of Procurement, installation, testing and Station operation including FM200 fire suppression supplies the most heavily populated areas of 120,000m3/day and uses Reverse Osmosis commissioning of Discharge Pipes (Diameter system. Northern Oman, Sur serves the needs of customers in technology. A new Reverse Osmosis desalination Nominal) DN1200 from pumping station up to the Ash Sharqiyah where there is a separate extensive plant is also under construction at Barka with a interface point with new DN1600 transmission line. Building services for administration, pump room, water transmission system which is currently nominal capacity of 45,000m3/day and will share control room and guard house in addition to Detailed design and installation of new isolated from the Main Interconnected System (MIS). some facilities with the existing plants. connection to the existing infrastructure services. 33KV/11KV (Kilovolt) substation of 2x16MVA (Mega At Al Ghubra, the oldest of the large desalination In Sohar, a single IWPP plant is in operation, this has Volt Ampere) fed from 2x125MVA grid station at Installation of 2-axis Bridge crane of 15 tones plants (Existing Ghubrah-IWPP) is coming to the end 3 the capacity to produce 150,000m /day of water Al-Ghubrah plant by two 3cx300mm2 High Voltage capacity with all related items. of its commercial and functioning life and it is using thermal technology. This plant feeds into the (HV) cables (~700meter distance) in accordance with planned to be decommissioned gradually untill 2017.

This is Construction of pump room, administration months. expected to be in service by early 2015 and will building with all services, control room with Main largely replace the capacity of the old plant. Al Central Control (MCC) panels and guard house along Ghubra is also the site of a temporary PAEW mobile with plant boundary wall.
