South Korea’s Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co. clinched a 470 billion won ($421 million) worth order to build a seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant (SWRO) in Saudi Arabia, its first feat in the country in five years.

According to the Korean company on Wednesday, the builder which is a global leader in the field signed a deal with Saudi Arabia’s Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC) to construct a reverse osmosis (RO) seawater desalination plant with the country’s biggest capacity in Shuaibah, about 110 kilometers south of Jeddah, the second largest city of the country.

Under the deal, Doosan Heavy plans to construct the plant on an EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) basis designed to desalinate around 400,000 tons into fresh water, or a daily supply for 130,000 people. In 2012, the South Korean company won a 1.1 trillion won deal to build a seawater desalination facility in Yanbu, Saudi Arabia.
