The contract’s signing aligns with Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan’s visit to Kuwait, where he plans to engage in discussions with the Emir and finalize agreements in sectors such as defense, energy, investment, and trade.
The wastewater treatment plant is designed to cater to the residents of the Al Mutlaa city development, generating around 400,000 cubic meters of tertiary-treated water daily for agricultural and various other applications, the ministry stated.
Situated in the northern part of Kuwait, approximately 40 kilometers from Kuwait City, the Al Mutlaa city project comprises over 28,000 residential units.
