PROFILE |
 |
Azurix sees water, water everywhere, and hopes to make money from it. The company is controlled by Enron, which formed Azurix to acquire, manage, and develop water and wastewater businesses around the world. The company's biggest operation is UK-based Wessex Water; Azurix also operates systems and offers related services in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Egypt, Germany, Mexico, and the US. With deregulation sweeping through the water industry, Azurix had hoped to use Enron's experience to pick up a number of formerly government-owned water companies. But the company's stock slumped after its 1999 IPO, and Enron bought out minority shareholders in 2001 and said it would consider selling Azurix's assets.
