Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has awarded a contract valued at AED 216 million to improve the efficiency and reliability of Dubai’s water transmission networks. The project involves the supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of glass-reinforced epoxy pipelines of different diameters, along with related works at several sites across the emirate.
Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, Managing Director and CEO of DEWA, stated, “DEWA is committed to enhancing production and operational efficiency while strengthening the reliability of Dubai’s water transmission networks, in support of the emirate’s sustainable development goals.”
The initiative includes laying a 7.1-kilometre main water transmission line and creating 20 interconnections for both transmission and distribution networks. This is intended to increase water flow and pressure in various areas throughout Dubai. The upgrades are expected to reinforce the system’s readiness and ability to meet increasing demand.
According to DEWA, the project will help secure adequate water supplies for current needs as well as anticipated future requirements. It is scheduled for completion within two years and will contribute to supporting Dubai’s infrastructure development across multiple sectors.
