Zulal Water Technology (ZWT) has been awarded an Engineering, Procurement, Installation & Commissioning (EPIC) contract by Libya’s Waha Oil Company (WOC) to construct a drinking water treatment plant at Dahra Oil Field. The plant will have a design capacity of 900m³/day and an operational capacity of 600m³/day, making it a crucial addition to the field that currently lacks a drinking water plant.
The water at Dahra Field is highly challenging to treat due to its high salinity levels comparable to sea water and high levels of H2S and iron. To overcome these challenges, ZWT highlighted the specialized nature of the project, which requires substantial technical expertise. The company boasts over 35 years of experience and has successfully completed numerous water treatment projects in Libya.
Iftikhar ul Haq, Director of ZWT, emphasized the importance of experience in tackling the unique challenges posed by Dahra Field’s water. Waha Oil Company conducted a competitive procurement process and thorough technical evaluation before awarding ZWT the contract. The project will be executed on a full turnkey basis, including various treatment processes and the supply of necessary equipment and chemicals.
This project adds to ZWT’s portfolio of successful water treatment plants completed for Waha Oil Company in various locations. The company’s commitment to using the latest technologies and expertise ensures that Waha’s water needs are met efficiently and effectively.
