A private investment valued at $728,274 USD was made to build a reservoir, water treatment plant with capacity of 90,000m3/day, a 45km transmission pipeline system with diameter of 800-900mm from Dong Tam to Go Cong town, and a booster pumping station in the Mekong Delta province of Tien Giang, Vietnam. GHD Vietnam was appointed to provide technical assistance, project management and supervision for the project.

The project aimed at supplying fresh water for about 590,000 inhabitants in Go Cong town and two local districts Go Cong Dong and Go Cong Tay as well as Cho Gao town and a few industrial parks in Cho Gao as a supplementary water supply. The project commenced in December 2008 under the Build Own Operate (BOO) form. Tien Giang People’s Committee and Tien Giang Water Supply and Sewerage Company will be responsible for the distribution of water and invest on construction of secondary pipe network.

GHD has designed, project managed and fine-tuned the operations of more than 300 water treatment plants - from 0.1Ml a day to over 2500Ml a day. Our technical solutions protect public health; improve water taste, colour and odour; reduce corrosiveness; and optimise treatment plant efficiencies.
