Japan and Saudi Arabia are to sign a memorandum later this week under an agreement to cooperate on several water-related projects.
As part of the memorandum, Japan will provide advanced technology for a seawater desalination project to Saudi Arabia and construct waterworks and sewage systems.
Both countries will hold regular consultations about Saudi Arabia's water policy.
A major Japanese construction firm will carry out surveys in Saudi Arabia for the development of large waterworks projects, reports arabstoday.net.
