On the afternoon of the 25th, Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction announced that it has won a contract to build a seawater desalination plant in Saudi Arabia through the electronic disclosure system of the Financial Supervisory Service. This contract will be conducted in an EPC method in which Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction performs all the steps from design to equipment manufacturing and construction. Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction will build a seawater desalination plant in Alais, north of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, by 2023.
This plant can obtain high-purity drinking water by removing salts from seawater, which is difficult to use directly as domestic or industrial water. It produces about 450,000 tons of water a day, and it is a scale that can be used by 1.5 million Saudi Arabians at the same time.

Vungang has an international port and is growing into an industrial complex centered on heavy industries such as the steel industry. The Vietnamese government is building large-scale power generation facilities in Vung Ang District 1 and District 2. The thermal power plant to be built by Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction is expected to contribute to Vietnam’s industrialization.
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction won the construction of a hydroelectric power plant worth 403.7 billion won in Nepal in October last year, and also won a contract to build a combined cycle power plant in Guam at the end of last year.
