VA TECH WABAG Wins ₹118 Cr Repeat O&M Order in Bahrain

VA TECH WABAG has secured a repeat order worth about 5.12 Million Bahraini Dinars (approx. ₹118 crore) from the Ministry of Works, Municipalities Affairs and Urban Planning (MoW), Kingdom of Bahrain. The contract covers operation and maintenance (O&M) of the 40 MLD Madinat Salman Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) and Long Sea Outfall for five years.

Earlier, in October 2015, WABAG was awarded the EPC contract for the same 40 MLD STP and Long Sea Outfall, which was successfully completed in 2018. Since then, the company has been operating and maintaining the plant.

The state-of-the-art STP features tertiary treatment and sludge treatment using aerobic digestion and thermal drying. An automatic bagging plant packs EPA Class A Sludge for commercial sales, while treated water is reused for irrigation across 13 islands, supporting Bahrain’s sustainable water management.

Srinivasan K, GM – MENA RHQ said, “We are proud to secure this prestigious repeat O&M order from the Ministry of Works, Municipalities Affairs and Urban Planning. This order further strengthens our O&M order book, providing annuity income, improved cash flows, and revenue predictability. The award reaffirms the Ministry’s continued trust and confidence in our operational excellence and consistent performance, for which we are deeply grateful. We remain committed to delivering best-in-class services and ensuring the plant operates at optimal efficiency to serve the community with safe and reliable water.”
