DEWA invites bids for power and desal project

The Hassyan P power and desalination plant will be constructed in two phases.

The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has issued separate tenders for the construction of phases one and two of the Hassyan P power and desalination plant to be built in Dubai.

The facility will have a total capacity of 3,000 MW of power and 200-220 million imperial gallons of desalinated water per day. Commissioning will be carried out in stages in 2011 and 2012.

The two power plant tenders are for gas turbines with heat recovery steam generators, auxiliary boilers and back pressure steam turbines and associated works. The water tenders are for multi-stage flash desalination units, sea water pumps, potable water pipes and associated works.

Completed tenders for phase one need to be submitted by 31 March, while the deadline for the second phase is 15 April.

Interested parties can submit a combined power and water tender or they can bid for just the water or power elements of each phase.

DEWA stated that it might invite the power and water winners to form a consortium, led by the power plant bidder, and award the projects on a turnkey basis.
