Qatar mega-water project set for world’s largest water reservoirs

Five mega-reservoirs – among the largest in the world – are being built in Qatar at a cost of nearly $5bn.

They will each have a capacity of nearly 400 million litres of water, effectively tripling Qatar’s supply – a resource seen as vital for the nation’s growing population.
