Bahrain’s Electricity and Water Authority (EWA) has extended the bid submission deadline for its tender to build a new water distribution station on Hawar Island on the southeastern coast, according to tender documents.

Bids, initially due on 23 November 2025, have been postponed to 7 December 2025, according to tender documents.

“The engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract is expected to be awarded in February 2026,” a source aware of the details told Zawya Projects.

The contract duration is 18 months.
