Nama Water Services Co. recognised at Asian Water Awards 2025

The company is driving excellence in sustainable water infrastructure and service delivery.

Nama Water Services Co. was honoured with two prestigious recognitions at the Asian Water Awards 2025: Sustainable Water Infrastructure Award - Oman and Water Company Excellence Award - Oman.

These accolades reflect the company’s continued leadership in executing large-scale, strategic water projects that directly contribute to Oman’s national development goals and long-term water resilience.

Al Dakhiliyah Transmission System (Phase II)

The Sustainable Water Infrastructure Award - Oman was conferred for the successful delivery of the Reinforcement of Al Dakhiliyah Water Transmission System Phase II, a project designed to significantly enhance supply capacity and strengthen national water security, which increased water supply capacity to 60 million gallons per day. The project value is over 126 MOR (US$327,689,787).

The project built 173 kilometres of transmission pipelines, five pumping stations, and 15 reservoirs, including four in Samail with a total storage of 440,000 cubic metres. It incorporated environmentally safe disinfection systems through the latest technology, hypo-chloride solution plants generated at the site to safeguard long-term reliability and water quality.

The initiative also created 195 employment opportunities for Omanis, awarded OMR9m in contracts to small and medium enterprises, and procured OMR24.5m in local materials and services.

It implemented smart SCADA systems for real-time monitoring and gravity-based distribution, reducing operational energy consumption. Integration with existing reservoirs improved transport efficiency and supported future national network connections.

Distribution networks in Al Hamra and Bilad Sait

The Water Company Excellence Award - Oman recognised the construction of water distribution networks for Wilayat Al Hamra and Bilad Sait, a flagship project addressing long-term water supply challenges in mountainous regions whilst extending reliable service to rural communities.

The project benefited more than 81,000 residents across 82 villages. Valued at over OMR35m (US$91,024,000), it included 94 km of transmission pipelines and 350 km of distributions networks, supported by 22 pumping stations and a central reservoir with 18,000 cubic metres of capacity.

The project was designed to remain resilient amidst mountainous terrain, ensuring reliable and uninterrupted water access.
It is integrated with the National Control Centre in Muscat through advanced automation, enhancing operational oversight.

Environmentally safe disinfection systems and integration with desalination plants further strengthened long-term reliability and water quality. The project supported local populations by stabilising water access, supporting rural settlements, and enhancing community well-being.
