Ma'aden, a Saudi Arabian Mining Company, will tender the USD-240 million water & waste water treatment plant (WWTP) at Waad Al Shamal Mining City in Al Hail next month.
"The detailed design of the WWTP project is expected to complete by third week of June and Ma'aden is expected to float the tender by the first week of July 2014," a source told Zawya in an exclusive. He was not willing to share further details on the capacity of the project.
The plant will serve the Waad Al Shamal Mining City, a 440-square-kilometers industrial city being built by Ma'aden.
Radicon Gulf Consult Kentz (RGCK) is the main consultant and Byrne Looby Partners (BLP) is the concept design consultant on the project.
"The negotiations and signing of the final contract will likely be completed by first week of October 2014," added the source.
Construction work is expected to start by end of November 2014 and be completed by Q2 2016.
