SEPCO III is the EPC contractor for the US$1bn project, awarded to SembCorp Utilities and Oman Investment Corporation SAOC in November 2009. Hydrochem, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hyflux, is the sub-contractor for the seawater desalination plant.

The gas-fired plant, which is expected to become operational in mid-2012, will have a capacity of 445 MW and will produce 15 million imperial gallons of water per day. Its output will meet the growing demand for power and water for the Dhofar region.
