The Sea Water Desalination Plant project on the Syrian coast is a major strategic step within the Saudi investment package in Syria. The project, led by ACWA Power, a leader in water desalination and energy, aims to address water shortage challenges and provide sustainable sources of drinking water.

This vital project comes as part of a series of large-scale Saudi investments involving multiple sectors such as aviation and telecommunications, reflecting a commitment to supporting the development of basic infrastructure in Syria. The plant will focus on seawater desalination and transport, which will significantly contribute to improving water security in coastal areas and other beneficiary regions.

ACWA Power's investment in this vital sector represents not only a technical solution to the water problem but also an indicator of restored confidence in the Syrian investment environment. The project is
expected to contribute to driving economic and social development by providing a basic resource for life and economic activity.

The Director General of the General Authority for Water Resources, Ahmed Al-Kawwan, explained that the studies included drilling experimental wells on the coast, and that there are freshwater springs discovered in the sea at a depth of about 500 meters from the shore that can be utilized within the new system.

the desalination plant project on the Syrian coast represents a fundamental pillar in development efforts. It is an embodiment of the strategic partnership aiming to build a secure and sustainable water future for Syria, supported by leading Saudi expertise and investments.
