Context and challenges

This client, a global leader in the water, waste and energy management, has developed the conceptual design for an Integrated Waste Management Facility to be located in the Jubail Industrial City (“JIC”) in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. This plant facility aims to produce energy by burning the stored waste to replace fossil fuel, which is in line with the 2030 vision of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

This plant deals with pre-condition liquid and solid industrial waste, organic & in-organic wastes, which are stored as raw material for the energy generating. This plant consists of two main parts: waste storing and treatment facilities. The project is a leading technology plant in the waste-to-energy industry, and this client intends to launch several other projects alike in Middle East and specially Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

This client has appointed Assystem to provide engineering and project management expertise as part of an EPCm contract.
