The Saudi Water Partnership Company (SWPC) is set to launch a tender for the planned Independent Strategic Water Reservoir (ISWR) program before the end of 2019.

The program covers the development of six ISWRs, which will have the capacity to store almost 20 million cubic meters of water. It consists of projects in:

• Moghamma: 8,000,000 cubic metres (cm)
• Juranah: 2,000,000 cm
• Al-Jmoom: 2,000,000 cm
• North Jeddah: 4,000,000 cm
• South Jeddah: 1,000,000 cm
• Taif: 2,040,000 cm

SWPC has appointed an advisory team that will provide consultancy services for the procession of the ISWR program. India’s Synergy Consulting was appointed as the lead advisor, with Canada’s WSP and UK-based DLA Piper as technical and legal advisers, respectively.
