MUSCAT : The ambitious project, undertaken by Namaa Water Services Company, aims to enhance water sustainability and security in the region.

Eng. Awad bin Khamis Al-Shabli, Project Manager, highlighted that the project involves substantial infrastructure upgrades, including the expansion of the Khadra Bani Difaa pumping station in Al-Habat, the installation of three new fiber tanks with 90 cubic meter capacities, and the construction of booster pumping stations in Al-Washal and Al-Fulaij.

The initiative will provide water networks to nine villages—Al-Ghareen, Al-Habat, Mahlia, Al-Alia, Al-Washal, Seih Al-Sarat, Al-Mazra’a, Seih Al-Budour, and Al-Fulaij—benefiting over 6,075 residents through 1,215 home connections.

The project spans an 87-kilometer pipeline, with 72.6 kilometers of excavation and 75 kilometers of pipe laying already completed. It also includes three tanks, each capable of storing 90 cubic meters of water. Backfilling works are underway, and the project is slated for completion in the second half of 2025.

Aligned with the strategic water transmission initiative from the Asilah desalination plant in South Al Sharqiyah, this project is aimed to bolster water availability in the governorates of North and South Al Sharqiyah. Eng. Al-Shabli reiterated the project’s role in ensuring water sustainability and security across the region.
