Construction of Trunk Sewer Network & TSE Infrastructure – Part 2.
The Al Ain Asset Enhancement Scheme is intended to address a mixture of strategic and conceptual needs.
AES is being implemented in parallel with other components of the Capital Investment Program (CIP).

The contract includes :
– The construction of a new deep interceptor trunk sewer from the existing Mezyad trunk sewer in the center of Al Ain City to a new WWTW at Al Hamah. It is noted that approximately 53 km in length needed to be constructed by micro tunneling.
– The construction of a new TSE pumping station at Al Hamah WWTW and an Intermediate TSE Pumping Station with 2 reservoirs and chlorination facilities. Each of the pumping stations has a capacity of approximately 2200L/s.
– Construction of twin pumping mains of approximately 42.3 km trench length, from the TSE pumping station at Al Hamah to the Intermediate Pumping Station and from the Intermediate pumping station to the existing pumping station at M10.
– The scope of the work is divided into two packages, noting that package 2 has been awarded to NCC on 11th October 2010 with a completion date and handing over set for the 10th October 2012.
