KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 18): There are jobs in the pipeline for companies that are involved in the water treatment-related business.
Pengurusan Air Selangor Sdn Bhd (Air Selangor) will call for tenders for the first phase of the Rasau water treatment plant valued at about RM4 billion next year, according to its CEO Suhaimi Kamaralzaman.
Among the public-listed companies with expertise in water treatment plants are Salcon Bhd, Taliworks Corp Bhd, and Selangor State government-controlled Kumpulan Perangsang Selangor Bhd (KPS).
The new water treatment capacity is to address the current low reserve margin. The average margin is 11%, Suhaimi revealed, but there are areas with reserve margin below average.
The first phase involves the construction of a 700 million litre a day (MLD) treatment plant, while the second phase which doubles the capacity to 1,400 MLD a day will cost an additional RM2 billion, and the work is estimated to be completed by 2024.
“It will be (in a few) packages, there is a treatment plant package, there is a distribution package, there is a pump house — a few packages, it hasn’t been finalized, it will not be a single award, it will be multiple awards,” said Suhaimi at a press conference.
Hence, the capital expenditure for Air Selangor over the next three years is slated to be high at about RM5 billion, he added.
This is part of a larger RM35.4 billion investment which was approved by Suruhanjaya Perkhidmatan Air Negara (SPAN) last month.
