a consortium led by Oman Oil Company, and operated under a PPA with OPWP for supply to RAECO.
The EPC tender is expected to be issued in the first quarter of 2014, with anticipated COD in the
fourth quarter of 2016.
Khasab IWP, with capacity in the range of 13,000 m3/d (3 MIGD) using RO technology, for supply to
PAEW. The tender is expected to be issued in the third quarter of 2014, with anticipated COD in the
fourth quarter of 2015.

In addition to these procurement actions, OPWP expects to finalize plans for a potential Duqm IPP during
