Summary
GlobalData’s Construction Intelligence Center (CIC) is currently tracking water and sewage related construction projects in the Middle East and Africa with a total value of US$133.2 billion. Of this, US$58.8 billion is in the execution stage and US$40.3 billion is in the pre-execution stage. Saudi Arabia, leads with projects valued at US$20.7 billion, followed by Kuwait with a project value of US$20.4 billion. In order of the projects’ values, the top ten countries are Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, the UAE, Oman, Iraq, Mauritania, South Africa, Bahrain, and Egypt. The highest value project tracked by the CIC in the region is the US$15.0 billion Al Zour North IWPP Plant in Kuwait, which will be a major power and desalination project for the country.
The Middle East and Africa includes the developing countries of Africa and the highly developed Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, with oil revenue to be spent on developing and improving water and sewage infrastructure. The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is the world's most water-scarce region, with 17 countries below the water poverty line set by the United Nations. Rapid population and economic growth, shared water supplies across borders, and the effects of climate change - including frequent droughts, together with declining rainfall - have severely tested water supplies. The desalination of seawater is common in the region, according to GlobalData’s CIC project analysis.
The potential for wide scale epidemics in sub-Saharan Africa as a result of poor water supply and wastewater treatment is a constant threat in the region.
Key Highlights
- The total pipeline of projects is valued at US$133.2 billion with US$19.1 billion being spent in 2019 and US$30.8 billion in 2020.
- The highest value of projects are at the execution stage with a total value of US$58.8 billion, followed by projects in pre-execution with US$40.3 billion.
- Projects that are in the pre-planning stage total US$29.1 billion, while those in the planning stage have a value of US$4.9 billion.
- Assuming all projects in the current pipeline proceed as planned, spending will reach US$30.8 billion in 2020 and fall to US$7.3 billion in 2023. The highest value of project completions will be in 2021, with a value of US$28.7 billion.
- Desalination plants projects account for the highest value with US$52.7 billion.
- The top contractors in the region are Hyundai Engineering Co Ltd based in South Korea, and SEPCO III Electric Power Construction Corporation based in China. The top consulting engineers are Lahmeyer International GmbH, based in Germany but part of Tractebel Engineering based in Belgium, and Amec Foster Wheeler (Wood Group), based in the UK.
