NCC to build new water supply system for Skellefteå Municipality


NCC has been commissioned by Skellefteå Municipality to build a new water supply
system. The system will supply 45,000 people in Skellefteå and nearby
communities with clean drinking water. The order is worth SEK 463 million.
“Having a reliable water supply is becoming an increasingly important social
issue. NCC joined the project at an early stage, which meant that we could work
together with the customer and consultants to develop an innovative and
sustainable solution for the local water supply in Skellefteå,” says Svante
Hagman, Business Area Manager at NCC Infrastructure.

Skellefteå Municipality needs a new water supply system in order to provide more
consistent and higher quality drinking water. Unlike the current system, which
collects water directly from the river, the new system will use groundwater. A
new waterworks will be built in the town of Medle. From there, water will be
supplied to Skellefteå via a system of pipes.

The aim of the water supply project is to simplify the production of drinking
water and improve delivery reliability. The new water supply system will also
reduce the use of chemicals and provide a better work environment for the
Municipality’s employees.

Skellefteå Municipality, Ramböll and NCC are conducting the project as an
extended partnering project (http://www.ncc.se/produkter-och
-tjanster/partnering/), which means that all of the parties involved will
contribute their expertise from the start of the project, thereby saving time
and money.

“Finally! We are looking forward to carrying out this major investment project
together with NCC and our other partners. After a long preparation period, we
are finally breaking ground,” says Stefan Johansson, Head of the Water and Waste
Management Department at Skellefteå Municipality.

Construction will start in August 2016 and continue until 2018. The system will
be deployed in early 2019 following calibration and operational testing.

The transaction will be registered in the second quarter of 2016 as follows: 60
percent in the NCC Infrastructure business area and 40 percent in the NCC
Building business area.
