In line with its social investment program for 2006, Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) has announced that it is to build a Reverse Osmosis (RO) plant at Wadi Al Omeiri’s government centre in Walayat Ibri. The RO plant  will serve Wadi Al Omeiri and nearby communities in Oman.

 

On Sunday 9th of April 2006 PDO signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Interior to fund a Reverse Osmosis (RO) plant at Wadi Al Omeiri’s government centre in Wadi Al Omari, Walayat Ibri.

 

Sayyed Mohammed bin Sultan Al Busaidi, the undersecretary of the Ministry of  Interior signed the MoU on behalf of the Ministry, with PDO Human Resources Director, Mundhir bin Salem Al Barwani, signing on behalf of PDO.

 

Mr Al Barwani commented: “PDO is proud to be providing an essential drinking water plant  for the government centre and the community of Wadi Al Omeiri. This plant will provide abundant clean water for the residents of Wadi Al Omairi & government employees at the centre. From a safety perspective, it will reduce the driving exposure as the company will no longer truck water to Wadi Al Omeiry”.
