Sembcorp Industries Completes Expansion Of Desalination Plant

Shares Investment

Sembcorp Industries has successfully completed and commenced operations of a US$200 million expansion to the Fujairah 1 Independent Water and Power Plant (IWPP) in the United Arab Emirates. The expansion has increased the plant’s total seawater desalination capacity by 30 percent to 130 million imperial gallons per day.

The increased water output from the expansion will be sold to the Abu Dhabi Water & Electricity Company under a 20-year water purchase agreement. With more than half of the plant’s desalinated water produced using reverse osmosis technology, the Fujairah 1 IWPP is now one of the largest reverse osmosis desalination facilities in the Middle East. Sembcorp Industries holds a 40 percent stake in the Fujairah 1 IWPP.
