Doosan Heavy’s deal marks the first for a desalination plant in the Islamic republic after international sanctions on it were lifted earlier this year.
The facility will process 200,000 tons of seawater into fresh water a day, enough for 670,000 people, according to Doosan Heavy.
In May, Doosan Heavy also received a 460 billion-won deal to build a desalination plant in Kuwait.
