Contract signed with the City of Oslo for the construction of a new water treatment plant
Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published on 19.10.2022 stating that AF Gruppen was appointed by the City of Oslo for a partnering contract for the construction of a new water treatment plant at Huseby in Oslo, as part of the New Water Supply project. The collaboration has now moved from development, planning, and design to phase 2, which is detailed design and construction. The contract is a collaborative contract in an alliance between the City of Oslo, represented by the Water and Sewage department, the designers Multiconsult and AF Gruppen. The main works are carried out inside the mountain facility at Huseby.

The works for AF Gruppen include groundwork and concrete work, process plant, dosing and sludge plant, and electrical work. The works are underway and are to be completed in the 4th quarter of 2027. The agreement has a value of approximately NOK 7,600 million excluding VAT.
“AF Gruppen is very pleased to have been awarded the contract to build a new water treatment plant for the City of Oslo. We look forward to continuing good cooperation with the City of Oslo and carrying out the construction so that the residents of Oslo have a safe and secure water supply in the future,” says Amund Tøftum, CEO of AF Gruppen.
About the Project
The City of Oslo has only one main water source. This makes the capital’s water supply very vulnerable. The City of Oslo is therefore building a new water supply from Holsfjorden in Lier Municipality and a water treatment plant and a new main pipeline network in Oslo. When the facility is completed, Oslo will have a fully functional and robust backup water supply.
