Metito Utilities has been awarded the operation and maintenance (O&M) contract for the Dubai South Sewage Treatment Plant by Dubai World Central Corporation, thus strengthening its role in operating critical wastewater infrastructure in the UAE.
Located in Dubai South, near Al Maktoum International Airport, the sewage treatment plant has a treatment capacity of 10,000 cu m per day and uses membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology with ceramic membranes to treat wastewater in accordance with Dubai Municipality standards.
Under the O&M contract, Metito Utilities will assume full responsibility for the plant’s day-to-day operation and maintenance. Its scope includes process control, plant performance optimization, regulatory compliance and long-term asset reliability.
The company will also implement proactive maintenance strategies and operational optimization measures to maintain reliable plant performance and support the long-term resilience of the wastewater treatment facility.
On the contract win, Sachin Kodolikar, the Chief Operations Officer, said the company’s experience in operating and maintaining critical water and wastewater assets will enable it to optimise plant performance, implement proactive maintenance and deliver reliable and efficient operations at Dubai South.
The award comes as Dubai South continues to expand as a major urban, logistics and aviation development around Al Maktoum International Airport. Reliable wastewater infrastructure will support the area’s growing communities and developments while contributing to sustainable urban growth.
