Dockwater BV has partnered with ENGIE Fabricom (Fabricom) and DENYS NV (Denys) to design and build the Dockwater desalination plant, which will provide sustainable process water in the Port of Antwerp, Belgium. 

Fabricom and Denys have formed a joint venture (Clearwater) to build the desalination project and join Suez to complete the technical team for the delivery of the project. Suez is responsible for the provision of engineering process design, operation and maintenance of the desalination facility.

Dockwater will offer an alternative by supplying sustainable high-quality process water sourced from brackish water. The project is expected to reduce drinking water consumption by more than 95% at industrial sites at the Port and ease pressure on drinking water supplies in the Antwerp region. The project will be financed by private capital.
