Water Supply & Wastewater Treatment

Improving water security and public health across Central Asia through rehabilitation of aging municipal water networks, construction of modern wastewater treatment facilities, and institutional strengthening of utility operators.

Sector Context

Water supply and sanitation infrastructure in Central Asia faces critical challenges inherited from the Soviet era: aging pipe networks with water losses exceeding 40%, intermittent supply schedules, minimal wastewater treatment, and chronically underfunded municipal utilities unable to maintain systems or attract investment.

The health implications are significant—contaminated drinking water, inadequate sewerage, and untreated effluent discharge into rivers threaten public health and environmental quality. International Financial Institutions have responded with comprehensive water sector programs combining physical infrastructure rehabilitation with tariff reform and utility commercialization.

FORLOG AG has managed water and sanitation projects across the region since 1996, serving as construction supervisor, Owner's Engineer, and implementation consultant for municipalities and national governments. Our portfolio spans urban water network rehabilitation, wastewater treatment plant construction, rural water supply schemes, and institutional development programs for Vodokanals.

We understand the technical complexities of rehabilitating systems while maintaining service to populations, the social sensitivities of tariff increases, and the governance challenges of transforming loss-making utilities into sustainable service providers.
