ADNOC and Veolia have signed a memorandum of understanding during the UAE-France High Level Business Council meeting to explore collaborative opportunities in water management. This strategic partnership will harness Veolia’s extensive expertise—spanning 44 countries across five continents—to improve water resource optimization.
The collaboration will focus on key areas such as evaluating water management strategies, conducting comprehensive water cycle assessments, and enhancing flow monitoring systems. A particular emphasis will be placed on reducing overall water consumption.
The initiative will include:
- Comprehensive analysis of water cycles,
- Development of innovative water management solutions,
- Research and implementation of advanced monitoring systems,
- Strategic action plans to minimize water losses over short-, medium-, and long-term periods.
This agreement will allow both companies to work together to develop tailored solutions that promote more sustainable water resource management. It aligns with ADNOC’s ongoing commitment to responsible water consumption while continuing to provide energy that empowers people, communities, and environmental protection efforts.
"This new partnership with ADNOC marks an important milestone in our commitment to the Middle East. In a region where every drop counts, we are putting our know-how at the service of innovative solutions to preserve this vital resource and successfully meet the challenge of ecological transformation. As a global leader in ecological transformation, we develop cutting-edge solutions that already enable industrial players worldwide, representing half of our client base, to significantly reduce their water and CO2 footprint. This collaboration is a natural part of our growth strategy in the Middle East, where we aim to strengthen our leading position in ecological transformation,” says Estelle Brachlianoff, Veolia's CEO.
