2005 - 2006 - Pinsent Masons Water Yearbook 2012

UNITED KINGDOM PART 2: COUNTRY ANALYSIS
There are a total of 23 PFI sewerage schemes in Scotland, with an original value of £587 million.
Wherever possible, construction work was due to commence in 1998 with a completion date of 2000.
In reality, there have been significant delays in the awarding process. For example, Aberdeen and
Peterhead was only awarded to Kelda’s consortium in August 1999, with completion of the main
project in 2001 and for a further facility in 2005. A number of the original schemes have been grouped
together in order to achieve economies of scale. The main schemes to date are as follows (£ million):

on water treatment works, provisionally awarded to Earth Tech/Kelda) and Omega (£130 million on
wastewater treatment works) projects for implementation by 2006. Further privatisation projects are
under consideration.

represents two former SWCs, three PFI contracts and Northumbrian Water.
