Veolia-Led Consortium To Build $500m Water Recycling Plant In Jubail

Dubai (PlantAndEquipment.com) - A consortium comprising France’s Veolia, Saudi Arabia’s Marafiq, and Lamar Holding has signed an agreement with SATORP, the Saudi Aramco–TotalEnergies joint venture, to develop a large-scale industrial water recycling project in Jubail Industrial City.

The project will include an industrial effluent treatment facility valued at $500 million, to be built by Veolia and Egypt’s Orascom. Scheduled to begin operations in 2028, the plant will have a treatment capacity of 8.8 million cubic metres per year, recycling complex industrial effluents while maximising resource recovery and reducing environmental impact. The consortium will also manage operations and maintenance under a 30-year contract.
