Water management

In Vietnam water plays an important role. The long coast line, the river delta’s in the North and the South and its low land elevations in areas make water management a vital issue in every project. For buildings and industrial projects, Haskoning Vietnam has the necessary expertise to study and engineer flooding and drainage problems of your site. We do not single out those issues, but through our multi-disciplinary approach we see the whole picture: besides the direct water related issues, we look at consequences for the foundations, geo-technical aspects, schedule, budget, durability and environment.

Our water experts can carry out investigations, obtain flood level data and do preliminary engineering works before you decide to start investing in a particular plot of land. This can save time and costs. Besides technical knowledge, we also look at the economical aspects.
Haskoning Vietnam is also capable of providing services on a larger scale up to nationwide issues such as coastal defense and water way transportation. We provide the following expertise:

• Irrigation and drainage: feasibility, design, supervision, operation & maintenance Dams, dykes, water control structures and reservoirs
