Saudi Water Partnerships Company has announced that the construction work is going at a steady pace on the Jubail 3A RO desalination plant coming up in the Eastern Province of the kingdom.

A key independent water project (IWP), the 600,000-cu-m-per-day plant is located 18 km south of Jubail Industrial City along the Arabian Gulf coast, adjacent to the existing plant units (Jubail Phase 1, Jubail Phase 2 and Jubail RO plants).

A consortium led by Acwa Power, a leading Saudi developer, investor and operator of power generation and desalinated water plants, in association with Gulf Investment Company (GIC) and Al Bawani Water and Power Company (AWP), is developing the project.
