Gowling WLG in the Gulf: The MENA water sector, awash with opportunities Listen Up - a legal podcast from Gowling WLG

    • Business

Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries are in the top 10 countries worldwide to be facing 'extremely high water stress' - meaning 80% or more of all available surface and groundwater in an average year being consumed. This reality presents a need and opportunity for growth within the region's water infrastructure. 
In this podcast, our head of sectors and projects partner Andrew Newbery is in discussion with our Saudi-based projects partner Imran Mufti, as they explore:
•  Why the MENA water sector is ripe with opportunities for growth and where presents the most prospects;
•  A brief history of the delivery of water infrastructure projects in the region and the popularity and innovation of desalination methods most frequently used;
•  How these projects are financed; and 
•  What the future holds for water infrastructure projects in the region.
