[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Hyunjin] Doosan Enpure, a UK subsidiary of Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction, announced on the 16th that it has won the Guildford Sewage Treatment Plant Relocation Project from Thames Water, the largest water and sewage company in the UK. Doosan Enpure is participating in the project as the main contractor in a consortium with BAM Nuttall in the UK, with a total project cost of approximately 180 billion KRW.

The Doosan Enpure consortium will demolish the existing sewage treatment plant located in Guildford, southwest London, UK, and construct and relocate a new sewage treatment plant on a nearby site applying advanced sewage and sludge (sediment generated during sewage treatment) treatment technologies. Doosan Enpure will be responsible for overall engineering, procurement and installation of equipment, and commissioning. Completion is scheduled for the end of 2026.

Park Inwon, Vice President of Doosan Heavy Industries Plant EPC BG, said, "It is meaningful to participate as the main contractor for the first time in a project with Thames Water, the largest water and sewage company in the UK," adding, "We will successfully carry out this project with Doosan’s advanced sewage treatment technology and further strengthen our position in the continuously growing global water treatment market based on this."

Doosan Enpure was selected as a contractor for the UK's national periodic project AMP framework contract in 2019. Through this, it has been expanding water treatment orders by participating in water and sewage expansion and renovation projects in the Yorkshire and Midlands regions until 2025.
