Scope: Surveillance solution with > 200 cameras, supporting NVRs & VMS
Location: Al-Alamein / North Coast, Egypt

Project Background:
In response to rising water demand, the Al-Alamein site includes a large reverse osmosis desalination facility for coastal communities. This critical infrastructure requires round-the-clock monitoring of process zones, pipelines, control buildings, and perimeters.

Challenge:
The facility’s layout covers both marine and onshore units. Surveillance must capture under varied lighting conditions (marine glare, dust, spray) and provide high-availability performance with minimal failure risk.

Solution by Comatrol:

• Deployment of more than 200 HD cameras (fixed, PTZ, wide-angle) for indoor and outdoor coverage

• Redundant NVRs with backup storage and failover

• Central VMS dashboard with alerting and video correlation

• Zonal analytics (motion detection, intrusion alarms)

• System configured to support remote monitoring from control center

Outcome & Benefits:

• Added security layer for critical RO equipment and perimeter

• Enhanced operational oversight — monitoring treatment tanks, pumps, pipelines

• Alarmed analytics reduce false alerts, focusing operator attention

• Reliable video records for compliance, audits, and incident reviews
