water resources due to harsh environmental factors and depleting water tables. Australia is also
faced by a new water management challenges brought on by the burgeoning Coal Seam Gas
(CSG) mining industry, where New Water Corporation will initially focus its attention.
The CSG Industry has experienced extraordinary growth over recent years and the large volumes of brackish water that is produced as a by product during the first few years of CSG extraction is gaining attention from governments and communities.

New Water Corporation aims at offering specialised solutions to address the challenges in the CSG industry. Capitalising on a global talent pool and utilising the groups best resources, human capital representing decades of international expertise to provide CSG industry participants the most innovative solutions for the management of CSG water.
