SNC-Lavalin to extend capacity of Libya’s Great Man-Made River Project
S
NC-Lavalin has been awarded a C$450 million contract by the Great Man Made River Authority (GMMRA) in Libya to develop the Al Kufra Wellfield. The contract is part of the major GMMR water supply system currently under construction to transport potable water from the southern Libyan desert to urban centres in the north. SNC-Lavalin’s work includes the design of the Al Kufra Wellfield system and all construction related to connecting this new wellfield to the existing water distribution system including the installation of collector pipelines, pumps in 300 deep wells, the power supply and communications system. The GMMRA has been one of SNCLavalin’s major clients for the last 20 years. The Kufra scheme will provide an additional 1.68 million cubic metres of water per day to the GMMR main spine and will increase the hydraulic capacity of the existing conveyance systems in order to transport this additional flow. Construction will begin shortly with completion expected in 2015.
