representatives visit
Aqualia’s projects
in Montenegro
In the photo above, the group observes the progress accomplished in the project.
Below, Juan Bofill, manager of Aqualia’s Europe Zone department, describes the
main characteristics of the project and its progress.
European Investment Bank (EIB) represen-
tatives Marco Beros, the engineer in charge
of water treatment, and Wolfgang Spieles,
Senior Loan Office for the Western Balkans,
paid a visit to the projects currently being
carried out by Aqualia through its subsidiary
Aqualia Infrastructures, in Niksic (Montene-
gro).
They were joined by several local authorities
including Nebojsa Radojicic, the mayor of
Niksic, and Olivera Bozovic, the chief exe-
cutive of the Public Water Company, who,
during their visit to the facilities, were re-
ceived by Juan Bofill, manager of Aqualia
Infrastructures’ manager for the European
Region as well as by Fernando Ruiz, mana-
ging director of Tecnoma, a Spanish com-
pany engaging in technical assistance, and
Jadranka Vojinovic, manager of the Project
Implementation Unit.
The Niksic Waste Water Treatment Plant, to
be completed by December 2013, will be
the most important facility of its kind in this
country. It will be able to treat 15,500 m
3
of
waste water per day and will provide servi-
ces to a population of more than 100,000
people. Thanks to this project, funded by
the European Investment Bank, Aqualia
gains a foothold in the Balkans, a region
offering great business opportunities in the
water treatment segment in the short and
medium term through the European pre-
adhesion funds.
