Petro-Rabigh II IWSPP Phase 2

Rabigh IWSPP is owned and operated by the Rabigh Arabian Water and Electricity Company (RAWEC), a joint venture between ACWA Power, Marubeni Corp, JGC Corporation, and Petro Rabigh.

Phase II Expansion Project

Phase II involves an expansion of the existing captive plant supplying power, steam and water with HFO-based steam turbines that desalinate water in an RO plant. While Phase II is developed as a standalone project, it is integrated with Phase I once Phase II PCOD is achieved.
