Desalination plant sets new benchmark with record-breaking floating seawater Desalination Plant
Bahri Desalination, a specialized business unit of the National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia (Bahri), the global shipping and logistics leader, has established a new milestone in seawater desalination production, reinforcing its position as the industry pioneer with the largest floating desalination plant ever built on a marine barge.
The achievement was celebrated at an event held at the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture, where Guinness World Records officially recognized Bahri Desalination’s innovative mobile seawater desalination plant as the largest of its kind.
Measuring an impressive 123 meters in length, the mega floating plant boasts a daily output of 50,000cbm. Bahri, in association with the Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC) and Metito Saudi Limited, has built three such state-of-the-art desalination units installed on customized barges.
“This record reflects our cutting-edge work in deploying sizeable mobile floating desalination capacity where it is needed most along our coastlines,” stated Eng. Ahmed Alsubaey, CEO, Bahri.
