Great Man-Made River (GMMR): النهر الصناعي العظيم



GMMR

Searching for oil beneath the desert's sand the Libyans have instead struck water reserves in various parts of the country, some of which are just 100 meters below the surface.

Due to water shortages in Libya, and after considering the available options including the creation of desalination plants, transportation of water by tankers, and conveying water by pipeline from southern Europe, it was decided that there is no solution to the water crisis in Libya other than the creation of the Great Man-Made River, to extract water from the underground reserves and transport it to the various cities and town in the north of Libya.
