Narrative description of the project:

The objective of the Abha Metropolitan Water Supply Network Phase 2 Part A project is to provide a wider water distribution network in the Abha metropolitan city region, connected to the already operational system put in place in Phase 1. already operated and commissioned in Phase 1. For the realisation of Phase 2, the stations will be interconnected, including the design and construction of:
  • A new gravimetric water conveyance pipeline starting from the existing AM1WTS intake and terminating at the connection to the existing Dhahran Al-Janoub gravimetric line, with an approximate length of 25.1 km and a diameter of 48″, 40″ and 36″. In addition, the gravity line includes new connection and branch stations at Al Borg, Al Rawna, Military City and a future branch to Ahad Rafidah.
  • Two new steel water tanks at the Military City station, with a storage capacity of 30,000 m3 each.
  • A link connection from the new gravity pipeline to the existing Dhahran Al-Janoub pipeline for emergency purposes.
  • A future connection will be established from the Al Mahfouza reservoirs on the link line between the phase 2 and phase 3 reservoirs after the valve well No. C25-024 with a reduced T (88″/68″), a valve well and a cap to the fence of the phase 2 reservoirs and after phase 2 reservoirs.
