The water plant is owned and operated by Cameroon Water Utilities Corporation (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.camwater.cm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Camwater<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The project is financed by the Norwegian Export Credit Bank, Eksport Finance (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.eksfin.no\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Eksfin<\/a>), to the tune of FCFA 49 billion (EUR 74.8 million). On 17 October 2024, Cameroon President Paul Biya authorized the Minister of Finance Almine Mey to sign the financing agreement with <a href=\"https:\/\/gbc1.net\/index.php\/tag\/eksfin\/\">#Eksfin<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally built in 1953, the Japoma water purification plat has a capacity of 60,000 cubic meters per day and was designed to meet the needs up to the year 2000. Now, in 2024, it has clearly become obsolete and is in urgent for an upgrade and modernization.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"989388\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #989388;\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/gbc1.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Inrigo-03ew-jpg.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-20297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gbc1.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Inrigo-03ew-jpg.webp 600w, https:\/\/gbc1.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Inrigo-03ew-300x200.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Inrigo Project Team in Cameroon<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>After the upgrade, the Japoma plant will undergo a capacity increase to 68,000 cubic meters daily. In 2017, Inrigo delivered the two water purification stations at Meyomessala and Nkongsambas for a total capacity of 18,000 cubic meters per day. At that time, the project costs a total of FCFA 37.8 billion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Works are expected to commence before the end of 2024 and is projected to last about two years. The nearly 5-million population of the city of Douala consumes some 371,400 cubic meters of water every day. According to its master plan, Camwater intends to overhaul its water supply capacity by 65% by 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inrigo is a Norwegian company specialized in water and energy solutions and has been selected to undertake the upgrade of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15618,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":0,"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[838],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.12 -
