Saudi Arabia’s National Water Company (NWC) is set to award a significant contract to expand the sewerage network in the Al-Munisiyah neighborhood of Riyadh in the first quarter of 2025, according to sources familiar with the project details, as reported by Zawya Projects.
Valued at approximately $40 million, this initiative aims to improve the area’s sewage infrastructure by installing an extensive network of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes. The contract is expected to be awarded in February 2025, with completion anticipated by the second quarter of 2026.
The project involves the installation of about 18.5 kilometers of sewerage pipes, with diameters ranging from 200 mm to 500 mm. Additionally, the specifications include a 50-meter horizontal bore and circular boreholes measuring 1.2 meters in diameter and up to 6 meters deep to meet specific engineering needs.
NWC issued the tender for this project in early August 2024, with the deadline for bid submissions closing on October 22, 2024.
