Project Description
The Shuqaiq WTS is one of the most complex WTSes in Saudi Arabia – on its route from the Shuqaiq 3 desalination plant on the Red Sea coast, the pumped water has to overcome a positive gradient of more than 2 000 m and cut through mountains using tunnels.
Phase 3 comprises three packages: Package B includes a pipeline for Shuqaiq–Majardah WTS. Package B2 includes a pipeline for pipelaying for the Shuqaiq–Abha WTS, the Shuqaiq–Samta WTS and the Baysh Dam–Shuqaiq WTS.
