“Being involved in developing the project through close collaboration from the very start, is something we truly value and find exciting. We are therefore very pleased to have signed this contract based on the same collaborative principles that guided the project’s development,” says Thor Småbrekke, District Manager at Veidekke Bygg Bergen.
The new water treatment facility has been developed as a joint collaborative effort with Equinor as the client and several parallel partners. Veidekke’s scope includes constructing a concrete building for the treatment plant with cast water tanks and technical installations, as well as ground and site preparation.
Construction work is already underway, with completion scheduled for autumn 2027.
The contract will be included in Veidekke’s order backlog for the fourth quarter of 2025.
