The project, signed by Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman Al Saud, currently achieves total size of about 8 billion Saudi riyals (2.1 billion dollars). The project is expected to construct or expand the optical networks throughout Saudi Arabia, with a target coverage of 80% from the original 44% by the end of 2020, which indicates the surging communications demand in Middle East. Apart from Saudi Arabia, Hengtong has completed Bahrain Telecom's 3 years exclusive outdoor cable supply and won the trust from clients.
