It comprehends those facilities that are used for public water supply, including collection, treatment and return to the receiving environment or for a later use. These facilities are as follows.
Water transmission infrastructures: Pipelines, collectors, channels and outfalls, either reused, residual, drinking water, irrigation, etc.
Water treatment infrastructures: Wastewater treatment, drinking water, desalination plants and facilities of water reused.
Small Infrastructures of water storage and auxiliary elements: Tanks, storm tanks, pumping stations etc.

OFITECO offers all the services of engineering and consulting related to the integral water cycle.
The development of infrastructure for the transport of water has become a key task to ensure the supply of water to the towns around the world. In this way, OFITECO provides previous studies, design, supervision, control, monitoring and management of construction of large pipelines for transport in pressure, collectors, automation and regulation of channels and emissaries, either reused, residual, drinking water, irrigation, etc.
One of the stages most important of water cycle is sufficient quality of water according to the necessary requirements for urban supply and return to the natural environment. Therefore, OFITECO is involved in the implementation of these essential facilities in the water cycle: purification, desalination and wastewater treatment, and reuse of water facilities, respectively.
