Senior Vice-President Park Jung-seok of the Industrial Machinery PU signed the contract for seawater desalination pump motor of Yanbu 3 PJT with Japan’s Torishima Pump on August 21st. This project is a multi-evaporative (MSF) desalination plant construction project at Yanbu, an industrial city in Saudi Arabia, and its goal is to supply water to be used by 1.8 million people in Yanbu and the neighboring areas with the daily freshwater output of 550 thousand ton (121MIGD). Hyosung had obtained the order of seawater desalination pump motor of Ras Al-Khair, Saudi Arabia, which was the world’s biggest scale, through Torishima Pump in 2011. With this project, Hyosung set a record for obtaining two consecutive massive desalination projects. Hyosung could be selected as the final contracting party as it received high praise based on trust from consistently successful projects thus far. This once again proved the technological skills of Hyosung’s seawater desalination motors.
