6 ANNUAL REPORT 2015
Chairman’s Message
The water sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia enjoys
great support and sustained attention from our rulers, God
bless them. Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC)
is deserving of such support because of its significant
achievement considering that its water desalination is the
world’s first and is a pioneer in the industry. SWCC’s annual
report in 2015 includes a brief of its most significant
achievements during the year along with the future
projects and expectations that the organization plants to
implement based on a comprehensive vision to further
develop the water sector in the Kingdom and to secure
more reliable water resources for potable water for all
regions. SWCC, praised be to Allah, proved its capability to
develop the production system and work mechanism. This
was recognized this year by garnering two international
awards during the Global Water Intelligence Summit held
in Greece with the participation of the world’s largest
water desalination and technology companies. It was
awarded World’s Best Desalination Company and the Ras
Al-Khair Desalination Plant for its modern technologies
and the advanced levels of operation used largely due to
the efficient design of the plant.
Since its establishment and towards the end of this
year, SWCC constructed 28 desalination plants and has a
produced 1.3 billion cubic meters of desalinated water this
year, 55% of which was from the Eastern Coast and the
remaining 45% from the Western Coast or an increase of
13% compared to last year’s which covers 60% of the water
needs of the Kingdom and 18% of the global production.
In addition to the desalinated water production, SWCC
contributes to the production of electric power through dual
purpose plants, where its production for this year reached
37,028,635 MWh, an increase of almost 25% compared to
last to the previous year. Furthermore, SWCC continues in
improving the water supply networks, pumping stations
and reservoir to guarantee continuous flow of water to all
cities and governorates of the Kingdom.
The SWCC achievements would not have been realized
without God’s grace and thanks to its investment in the
Saudi cadre which is the core element in the production,
transmission, research and system development. The
organization gives top priority to its staff to improve their
7ANNUAL REPORT 2015

efficiency by conducting trainings and development programs,
as well as specialized scholarship courses and programs. It
continues to develop techniques of desalination through
scientific researches and studies conducted by its Desalination
Technologies Research Institute (DTRI), in collaboration with
local and international universities and research centers
to develop and update production mechanisms, as well as
signing of some joint research agreements with international
research and development centers.
On this occasion, I highly praise SWCC’s efforts for the
development of the production and transmission system
through hard work and by implementing new projects,
construction of new plants, according to the drawn plans of
Ras Al-Khair plant, and maintenance of its pipelines.
I pray to God Almighty to reward these efforts with success
and to maintain the leading position of the Kingdom in this
area and other areas of comprehensive development, under
the auspices of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosque, His
Royal Highness Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Deputy
Crown Prince, may God make them more successful, and to
guide us all to keep this grace, make the best use of it and
rationalization of consumption.
I also extend my thanks to all SWCC employees for their best
efforts, wishing them more success and prosperity, and I ask
God to grant us all sincerity in words and deeds.
Peace, mercy and blessings of God
8 ANNUAL REPORT 2015
With the grace of God, this year 2015, Saudi Arabia represented
by the Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC) garnered
two international awards; the first, the World’s Best Desalination
Company for its tremendous development of tools used in the
management of its business and its operational, the second award
was granted to the (Ras Al-Khair) Desalination Plant for its use of
modern technologies and the advanced and unprecedented levels
of operation used due to the efficient use of the plants design.
Actually, these awards are the culmination of the determined
efforts of SWCC over the past decades to realize its strategic vision
and objectives. As a matter of fact, the Custodian of the Two Holy
Mosques, King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, may God bless him, in
receiving the two awards himself, implies his high estimation – may
God make him more successful, for the value of such fundamental
and important sector and commits his attention and support
for all that could achieve prosperity, security and stability to our
beloved Kingdom, may
God guard it.
As SWCC believes that its remarkable achievements and global
leading position was granted by God’s grace and by the
hands of its staff, it is keen to provide a work environment
where the developments of skills are made possible and given
importance. It conducted various training programs; internal and
external workshops all for the purpose of enhancing the skills of
its staff and contribute to the progress of the organization. SWCC’s
Training Institute conducted various development and specialized
programs. It seeks to attract more Saudis either engineers or
technicians, provide them training programs to make them more
competent and knowledgeable in the field. Thus, SWCC achieved
a percentage of Saudization that reached about 91% out of the
total number of employees and workers totaling more than
10,000.
SWCC continues its efforts this year to accomplish its mission to
meet its customers’ needs of desalinated sea water and electricity
with efficiency and reliability at the lowest possible cost and a
more value for the money of its customers.
The water sector has now a total number of 28 plants this year, or
an increase of 13% from last year.
Electrical power production, through its dual purpose plants, has
produced 25% more than the previous year.

Water Transmission
In an endeavor to secure sustained water supply to different
governorates and cities of the vast Kingdom, due to the urgent,
constant need for water, and the ever-increasing population,
SWCC has carried out 21 water transmission systems to transmit
water via a very long piping system totaling 7,175.5 Km in length,
with diameters ranging between 8 - 80 inches. To ensure sustained
pumping capacity, despite the long distances of these pipelines
and terrain ruggedness in some areas, SWCC has also installed
56 pumping stations along the pipelines to pump water to its
reservoirs numbering 285 with capacities of 12,698,200 cubic
meters combined with 3 mixing stations to blend desalinated
water with groundwater, and 9 other terminal stations.

106 ANNUAL REPORT 2015
Information Technology (IT)
SWCC faces many challenges with the persistently high demand for
desalinated water due to high population growth in the Kingdom,
and the widely spread urban areas. The other challenge lies in long
geographic distances separating central and northern cities of
the Kingdom where water transmission requires large projects. In
addition, SWCC has the challenge to cope with the constant change
and evolution of plant operational and maintenance technologies. We
should also not forget the importance of IT and the fast development
in this area. Despite all these challenges, SWCC, being the largest
producer of desalinated water in the world, is positioned to achieve
significant successes.
In relation to Information Technology, SWCC, represented through
e-TP, has achieved distinctive successes in implementing Enterprise
Resource Planning (ERP) technology. Recently, e-TP was launched
which includes the deployment of a new range of administrative and
technical capabilities in order to serve the remaining SWCC sectors.
This all occurred after the implementation of the ERP system which
was managed by a group of some of the largest international and
local implementation companies, with participation of work teams
from within SWCC. An ambitious plan is also in place to complete the
rest of the projects as per plan.
The nature of SWCC’s industrial facilities and its geographic dispersion
poses extensive challenges and regulatory compliance issues. SWCC
consists of more than 27 desalination plants and 16 sites along the
Kingdom’s East and West coast. In addition, SWCC staff exceeds 10,000
employees. Also, SWCC operates a Kingdom-wide water transmission
pipeline network of over 5,000 kilometers, covering all urban areas of
the Kingdom.
SWCC forms the strategic source for desalinated water in
the Kingdom which increases work pressure, and Executive
Management attention to safeguard production at all times.
This makes the time necessary to develop systems and quick
adaptation of them an additional burden to the employees
affected by these programs. Despite the fact that SWCC is
a corporation of industrial facilities responsible in the first
place for desalinated water production and electrical power
generation, the initiatives for modernizing infrastructure and
deploying the best and latest technologies is a priority for
SWCC’s top Management and its leader H.E. Governor. While
Distributed Control Systems (DCS) have taken a firm place
in controlling production units, SWCC has launched many
initiatives to update the infrastructure and build a strategy
for Information Technology as well. It has also launched an
initiative for IT-led transformation, e-TP, which is envisaged to
transform business capabilities through introduction of best-
in-class end-to-end processes, employee development, as well
as introduction of industry best practices.
107ANNUAL REPORT 2015
Through concentrated efforts, Senior Management support,
the dedication of SWCC work teams, and the professionalism
of implementation partners on the program, SWCC’s e-TP Program
was internationally recognized and received the award for best
practices in managing projects (PMO) ) for 2011, SWCC competed
against a large number of international utility companies in
countries all over the world. SWCC’s e-TP Program is viewed as a
model program that represents a long-term successful initiative for
such a large corporation as SWCC. As a result of this success, the
program received the support and appreciation of SWCC’s Board
of Directors which showed its satisfaction with work progress on
the program, achievements to date, and the local and international
prizes awarded. The Board of Directors recommended continuous
support to the program as strategic to SWCC.
The main objective of e-TP is an IT-led transformation which is
envisaged to transform business capabilities through introduction
of best-in-class end-to-end processes, employee development,
as well as introduction of industry best practices, with that, IT
within the company will shift from a pure Service-Provider role to
a Strategic-Partner role.
Understandably, achieving this goal requires a lot of effort, planning
and coordination. Therefore, since the beginning of the Program, it
has been decided that work should be done through sophisticated
technical and strategic plans. Additionally, internationally
recognized methodologies are used in implementing all aspects
of the Program. Among these methodologies, for example, are:
Program Management Institute (PMI), and the Oracle methodology
for developing applications, known as (ABF). The program also
Objective of e-TP
has a policy of adopting best international practices (Best Practice
Approach) as an optimum way to achieve the best results, based
on successful experiences as the fastest way to get direct practical
results, without the need to enter into projects with uncertain
results.
To ensure a successful implementation Methodology, e-TP adapts
the Project Management Institute (PMI) standard for which it
established the Program Management Office (PMO). The PMO
undertakes management of the projects according to approved
internationally recognized methodologies. A program was designed
and implemented for Change Management in order to prepare
the organization and workers to deal with the new processes and
systems. This is considered to be one of the most important success
factors of such projects and is based on the maturity level and skills
of the employees within the Corporation.
