Water supply in the Sousse region
Tunisia
The Sousse region is one of the main tourist destinations in the Mediterranean. Although its base population is 400,000 inhabitants, in the periods of greatest occupation it can reach up to 2 million. These steep seasonal increases pose a challenge to the planning and operation of the supply network.
Planning drinking water distribution systems is the key to ensuring current and future supply to users
The first step undertaken by IDOM was the digitization and organization of existing information. Following this, a diagnosis was carried out of its current state, to later plan the improvement and expansion of the supply network. Having a complete digital model of the network (more than 600 km) is an essential tool for its management and planning.
The scope of the contract includes the development of the hydraulic model of the network and the preliminary draft of the first phase works of the Master Plan.
