PETALING JAYA: Ranhill Holdings Bhd's subsidiary Ranhill Water Services Sdn Bhd (RWS) has been awarded a RM15.9 million contract for non-revenue water (NRW) services by Air Kelantan Sdn Bhd.
"Ranhill has always been in the forefront of NRW reduction management and this contract renewal proves our capabilities in producing tangible results per our client's requirements," president & chief executive Tan Sri Hamdan Mohamad said in a statement.
The 12-month contract is for servicing the areas of Kota Bharu Utara, Kota Bharu Timur, Kota Bharu Selatan, Bachok, Pasir Mas, Tumpat and Tanah Merah. The project, scheduled to start late this month, will cover about 70% of total pipe connections in Kelantan and reduce NRW by 5.8% from the baseline of 47%, currently.
"Since our involvement in 2013, RWS has managed to reduce the state's NRW level from 56% to 47% or a saving of 40 million litres per day (MLD). This can be translated to RM17.3 million savings per year for the state's water operator. As a result of this new contract, we can expect additional savings of RM12 million per year for the state."
RWS was formed in 2005 to focus on the reduction and management of NRW. To date, RWS has managed to save more than 450 MLD from all its NRW projects, which include Kedah, Malacca, Terengganu, Kelantan and Johor; enough to supply to more than 500,000 households every day.
