In addition, Sembcorp Salalah benefits from minimal operating risk as its operator, Sembcorp Salalah O&amp;M Services Company (Sembcorp Salalah O&amp;M), is a joint venture indirectly owned by the Project Sponsors, Sembcorp Utilities and OIC, creating an alignment of interests which ensures that the plant is operated efficiently. Sembcorp Salalah O&amp;M is managed locally and benefits from the procedures and expertise of Sembcorp Utilities, which is well established and has a demonstrated track record of running similar plants across the continents, with facilities of over 5,900 MW of power capacity and over 1,500 MiGD of water in operation and under development globally.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td height=\"20\"><\/td>\n<td height=\"20\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><em><strong>Excess capacity and outage allowance to ensure an extended plant lifespan:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"2%\">\u2022<\/td>\n<td width=\"98%\">Management believes that the excess of actual capacity over the contracted capacity of the plant will more than compensate for the estimated degradation of the plant over the term of the PWPA.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" height=\"5\"><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">\u2022<\/td>\n<td height=\"20\">The PWPA also allows Sembcorp Salalah to perform maintenance on the power plant at designated off-peak periods of the year.

About Sembcorp Salalah: \u2022 Sembcorp Salalah developed, owns and operates an electricity generation and seawater desalination plant, the Salalah Independent Water and Power Plant, located between Taqah and Mirbat in Oman. The plant is located approximately 50 kilometres from Salalah, the administrative town in the Dhofar Governorate. \u2022 The plant has been in full commercial operation since 25 May 2012 and has a contracted power capacity of 445 megawatts (MW) and a contracted water capacity of 15 million imperial gallons per day (MiGD). It consists of a gas-fired combined cycle power plant and a reverse osmosis seawater desalination plant. \u2022 As of the date of this announcement, Sembcorp Salalah supplies approximately 72% of the power dispatch and 100% of the net installed water capacity of the Dhofar Governorate. \u2022 The Company has invested approximately US$1 billion to develop, finance, build, own and operate the plant. It generates its revenues in accordance with a 15-year power and water purchase agreement (PWPA) with the Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP), which is indirectly wholly-owned by the Omani government. \u2022 As the largest and most energy-efficient power and water plant in the Dhofar Governorate, the Salalah Independent Water and Power Plant is expected to play a major role in meeting the growing power and water demand of the region into the foreseeable future and beyond. \u2022 Sembcorp Salalah is currently 60% owned by Sembcorp Utilities, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Singapore-based Sembcorp Industries, 35% owned by Oman Investment Corporation (OIC) and 5% owned by BDCC Investment Company, which is managed by Instrata. Business Highlights: Strong predictability of stable cash flows: \u2022 Sembcorp Salalah has strong predictability of cash flows that are not affected by the amount of power and water actually required by OPWP as the Company is paid on an availability basis, based on the power and water that is made available. \u2022 Under the PWPA, Sembcorp Salalah is entitled to receive capacity charges from OPWP for 100% of the available power and water capacity of the plant, which comprise approximately 90% of the total revenue of Sembcorp Salalah. These capacity charges are payable by OPWP regardless of whether the actual output of the plant is dispatched by OPWP. Well-established contractual framework: \u2022 Sembcorp Salalah\u2019s project represents one of 12 independent power and\/or water production projects to be implemented by the government through OPWP on a \u201cbuild, own and operate\u201d basis and benefits from a well-established contractual framework. Strong government support and stable revenues due to the strategic importance of both the industry and project: \u2022 The power and water sectors are of high strategic importance to the Dhofar&hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[53],"class_list":["post-6608","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","hentry","tribe_events_cat-announcements","cat_announcements","description-off"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/6608","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/6608\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6610,"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/6608\/revisions\/6610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6608"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6608"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.sembcorpsalalah.com.om\/ar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=6608"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
