CRC Evans , a UK-based company providing welding, welding technology, and coating services, has won a renewed contract for a water pipeline project in Morocco, led by state-owned OCP Group.
This project involved a 219-km pipeline to transport desalinated water from its Jorf Lasfar facilities to Khouribga operations, addressing regional water shortages.
Building on its successful completion of the first phase in 2024 (4,000 welds on 72 km of 52-inch diameter pipe), CRC Evans will now manage welding for 150 km of 56-inch and 40-inch diameter steel pipes, with around 12,000 welds. CRC Evans will deploy advanced internal and external welding equipment and specialist welding technicians.
CRC Evans’s Onshore Director, Henk DeGraaf, expressed satisfaction, pointing out the project’s huge benefits for the local population.
The company is also expanding into renewables and infrastructure, targeting utility projects like those under the UK’s Asset Management Plan 8 (AMP 8) framework.
