The Maputo Water System comprises 3,400 km of distribution network, 15 Distribution Centers in the cities of Maputo, Matola, Vila de Boane, and part of the District of Marracuene. 290 km of transport line takes every precious drop to you.
In the Umbelúzi System, water is captured downstream from the Pequenos Libombos dam and is treated at the Umbelúzi Water Treatment Station (ETA) in the Boane district, whose produced volume is 240M m3/day.
The water produced at the ETA is raised through the pumping system located immediately downstream of the ETA and transported along a pipeline system of more than 80km.
In the Sábiè System, water is captured downstream from the Corumana dam, in the district of Moamba, and is treated at the Sábiè Water Treatment Station, which currently produces 60M m3/day.
The water is transported by a 95km pipeline system to the Machava Distribution Centre.

The Journey of Water
Fase 1
Collection and Water Treatment
The water is collected by mechanical pumping to the Treatment Station for pre-chlorination, where bacteria, algae, and other microorganisms are destroyed. Then, the clean water is physically separated.
Fase 2
Water Distribution
Chlorine is added to destroy any bacteria or microorganisms that may have escaped the treatment processes, ensuring the safety of the water up to the point of storage and consumption.
Fase 3
Delivery to Client
The signing of an Adhesion Contract allows the supply of water to the customer’s installation through a connection to the system. Periodic readings are made to check the volume of water consumed so that the invoice can be issued.
