The order was unchanged for the option. Sidem offered a price of AED 124.6 million ($33.9 million), followed by Doosan at AED 125.1 million ($34 million). Both options included the construction of a seawater intake system. The plant will take 20 months to complete. The client is the Federal Electricity & Water Authority (FEWA).
