Regarding enhancing water sources and drilling new wells, the company explained that determining the locations of wells and the safe pumping quantities from them is subject to technical, hydrogeological studies, and plans and decisions approved by the Ministry of Water and Irrigation and the Water Authority.

It added that the company's role, within the scope of its responsibilities, focuses on improving the efficiency of managing and operating available sources and quantities, improving transportation and distribution operations, reducing waste, improving the efficiency of networks and transmission lines, and raising the technical and operational needs of the competent authorities according to the demand and supply situation in the governorate.
