The National Water Company (NWC) has announced its readiness to serve pilgrims visiting the Prophet's Mosque and religious shrines in Madinah, as part of its operational plan (for the second season) for Hajj 1445H. The plan includes a strategic water storage of more than 2.6 million cubic meters.
The company confirmed that more than 1,200 employees from its technical, engineering and administrative staff are ready to oversee the operations, which include the distribution of more than 610,000 m3 of water per day, at a continuous pumping rate of 24/7 in the Prophet's Mosque, the central area, and the religious shrines.
NWC has pointed out that all water networks and reservoirs are subject to continuous testing to ensure the quality and safety of the water. This is conducted by the work crews in the central laboratory and fully equipped mobile laboratories, which perform more than 560 tests daily.
The company stated that the monitoring and management of distribution in the water networks in the central region is managed through a smart operating system, by the monitoring and control center. This enables the company's specialists to follow up the service in real time, ensuring its continuity with high quality.
NWC reaffirmed its commitment to providing sustainable, high-quality water services that meet the highest standards, achieve its KPIs, and serve the guests of Madinah in an appropriate manner.
