Joint company launched in Abu Dhabi to deliver large-scale water infrastructure projects

Trojan Construction Holding, a leading construction and infrastructure company in the UAE, and Orascom Construction PLC, a global engineering and construction contractor, will jointly establish Everwater for Treatment Systems, an Abu Dhabi-headquartered firm that will offer Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) and Operations and Maintenance (O&M) services for large-scale water infrastructure projects across the region.

The agreement was signed during the Abu Dhabi Infrastructure Summit. Everwater is in the final negotiation of a 300,000 cubic metres per day desalination plant in the region. Everwater combines the two companies’ technical expertise, financial strength, and delivery capabilities to build a strategic platform for delivering complex, large-scale water projects. The partnership leverages Trojan Construction Holding’s strong execution capabilities and Gulf market footprint, along with Orascom Construction’s proven leadership as a developer and EPC and O&M contractor across water infrastructure, with more than 17 million cubic metres per day of combined water, wastewater, and desalination capacity in the MEA region.
