Seawater reverse-osmosis desalination (SWRO). The 2023 milestone paragraph reports ramping up production during final testing to a full capacity of 630,000 m³ of potable water per day; another paragraph says daily capacity is more than 630,000 m³ and uses future-tense equipment wording. The source's capacity and status descriptions are therefore inconsistent and do not establish a single unqualified capacity/status.
Reported status and procurement
Reported development
The source says the plant was already supplying the Khobar water network. It reports production ramping up to full capacity during final testing; a quoted ACCIONA director says final testing and commissioning stages were being entered.

Project summary
Al Khobar 2 is an SWRO desalination plant in eastern Saudi Arabia, and the article says it was already supplying the Khobar water network. The 31 JAN 2023 article reports production ramping up during final testing to 630,000 m³/day, but elsewhere gives a figure of more than 630,000 m³/day and describes equipment in future tense; its capacity and status descriptions are not consistent. The article reports that SWCC awarded construction to ACCIONA and RTCC in 2020.
Evidence limits and unknowns
