On December 8, 2020, a S$238 (about RMB1.16 billion) million contract for the Tuas Water Reclamation Plant (Tuas WRP) in Singapore was awarded to China Construction (South Pacific) Development Co Pte Ltd (CCDC), a regional subsidiary of CSCEC. The owner is Singapore's National Water Agency, PUB.

The project is CCDC's first water treatment plant project in Singapore, which not only will help achieve a new breakthrough in water infrastructure and fulfil Singapore's national strategy of the Four National Taps (Water from Local Catchment, Imported Water, NEWater and Desalinated Water) with concrete actions, but also a major project that responds to the CSCEC's development strategy, vigorously develops the infrastructure market and broadens the scope of infrastructure construction.

TWRP is located in the western end of Singapore, covering an area of 54 hectares. It is built to meet Singapore's demand for clean water by collecting, treating, recycling and purifying wastewater and is a new water treatment plant established by the Singapore government to solve its water shortage.

At present, there are 5 NEWater plants in operation in Singapore, which can meet 40% of the water supply demand in the country. The Singapore government has long regarded "water treatment" as a national strategic task, and it is estimated that it will invest S$4 billion in water supply infrastructure construction from 2017 to 2021.

The project will start on December 30, 2020, with a contract period of 39 months.
