Red Sea State launches project to supply 23 desalination plants
Sudan’s Red Sea State says an oil-pipeline company is donating 23 drinking-water desalination plants; the announcement gives no capacities, sites or delivery schedule.
Sudan’s Red Sea State governor inaugurated a project to supply 23 drinking-water desalination plants, according to a 10 October report by the Sudan News Agency (SUNA). The report says the plants are being donated by Petrolines for Crude Oil Limited.
SUNA described the initiative as cooperation between the state government and the private sector to support drinking-water provision across localities. It did not identify plant sites or capacities, say installation or commissioning was complete, or provide a budget or delivery timetable.
A Dakhla project with reported estimated investment of EGP 780 million includes a 10,000-feddan plantation, a separate 740-feddan development site and a planned 6.5km water line.
The two governments plan a joint committee meeting in the first quarter of 2027, with renewable energy, industry and electronics among the priority sectors.
The plant-protection authority reported aerial spraying across several Gezira areas, with Rahad next and an additional aircraft planned for western Gezira.
