Electrical Works Underway for New SWRO Plant in Aruba

As electrical contractor, we are currently working with Seven Seas Water Group on the construction of a new Seawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) plant in Aruba. This project is being developed under a Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOOT) agreement between WEB Aruba N.V. and Seven Seas Water Group.

The new SWRO facility will produce a minimum of 16,500 cubic meters of drinking water per day, significantly increasing Aruba’s water production capacity. Our scope of work focuses on the execution of electrical installations that are critical to the reliable and efficient operation of the plant.

This project forms part of WEB’s long-term strategy to meet the island’s growing water demand while maintaining a high level of reliability. The plant is scheduled to become operational by mid-2026, representing an important milestone for both the project partners and the local community. We are proud to contribute to infrastructure that strengthens Aruba’s sustainable water supply for the future.

WEB has been producing water for the island of Aruba since 1932 and began producing energy for the island in 1958. The average production, through seawater desalination, per day is ± 36.000 m3. The drinking water produced at WEB Aruba is pumped to 7 water storage tanks on its own premises. Besides these tanks, there are 7 water tanks installed at strategic points on the island. The distribution tanks also serve as buffers for water pressure as they are located on hill tops with elevations ranging from 60 to 110 meters above sea level.
