DOHA - Metir plc (AIM:MET) has successfully commissioned its water quality monitoring project in Qatar, the company announced in a press release statement on Friday.
The project, implemented for Qatar’s state water authority Kahramaa in partnership with Avanceon Limited, has deployed Continuous Toxicity Monitors (CTMs) throughout Doha’s local water pumping station network. The system provides continuous monitoring of toxins in the city’s potable water supply.
Following the completion of performance testing, the monitoring system has transitioned to full operation in accordance with contractual requirements. Metir expects to receive the remaining project payment of £198,000 in stage payments, with the total amount due within 60 days.
The CTM network tests water samples every few seconds at the final point before delivery to the local pipeline network, offering faster detection compared to traditional periodic sampling and laboratory analysis methods.
According to the company, the monitoring system can detect thousands of different water contaminants and toxins. Metir described the technology as "proprietary and unique in the water testing sector."
Bob Moore, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Metir, stated that the project "showcases Metir’s capability to deliver complex infrastructure in challenging environments" and "establishes a strong foothold in the Middle East."
The company indicated it plans to evaluate opportunities to implement similar projects in other cities and industrial sites as part of its business development strategy for this product line.
