Bin Quraya delivers Zuluf Water Supply and Disposal Project for Saudi Aramco

Bin Quraya has successfully completed the Zuluf Water Supply and Disposal Project in the Eastern Region of Saudi Arabia, awarded in January 2022. The project involved the construction of extensive pipeline networks and auxiliary facilities, including eight 24-inch lateral pipelines totalling 23 km, two 48-inch manifolds, and a 42-inch trunk line spanning 60 km.

Additional works involved four water drainage pipeline sections equipped with scraper launchers and receivers, along with three support buildings dedicated to operations, maintenance, and security. As part of the project, fifty water supply wells were drilled across eight sites to ensure reliable and sustainable water availability. In parallel, Bin Quraya delivered advanced process automation and communication systems for the Zuluf Central Processing Facility (ZCPF). These systems included GSM towers, overhead power lines, remote terminal units, a fiber optic ring network, power transformers, and high-capacity switchgear. The project utilised Digital Twin Technology in accordance with Saudi Aramco best practices. This technology involves creating a digital model of a physical object that is integrated with real-time data collected through sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT). Based on this real-time data, the digital twin can perform active simulations, showing the effects on the physical asset in real time.

The project was completed safely, with 5 million work hours logged without any lost-time injuries.
