Role in marine infrastructure

Bahrain's Electricity and Water Authority plans, procures and operates the country's electricity and water infrastructure. At Hawar, it is the owner and client for a new SWRO scheme divided into three EPC tenders: the treatment plant, offshore intake and outfall, and storage tanks with forwarding pumps. That division makes EWA the main interface owner across the marine works, plant process, storage and operating network. The public procurement record shows bids under evaluation, not awarded construction contracts.
