The National Oil Corporation (NOC) signed on Tuesday a contract to implement two projects for constructing water harvesting tanks in the municipalities of Rajban and Jado.
In a statement, the NOC said the projects will be funded by the Spanish integrated energy group “Repsol” and will be implemented in coordination with the “Acacus” oil operations company.
“A 1,000 capacity water reservoir will be installed in the “Mutalloui” field in Jado, while two others are to be established in Rajban with a storage capacity of 250 cubic meters each,” the NOC addded, while expressing its commitment to seek solutions to the problem of the lack of water supplies in Jadu and Rajban municipalities which have been ongoing for years.
