Morocco’s dams reach 42.5% capacity after recent rainfall

Following recent rainfall across the country, Morocco’s dams have recorded a noticeable improvement in water reserves. As of January 5, 2026, the overall dam filling rate stands at 42.5%, representing a total volume of 7.12 billion cubic meters, according to data published on the national water information platform MaaDialna.

Several river basins have benefited significantly from the recent precipitation. The Bouregreg basin is close to full capacity, reaching 93.6%, with reserves estimated at 1.01 billion cubic meters. The Loukkous basin also shows strong performance, with a filling rate of 61.9% and a volume of 1.18 billion cubic meters.

The Sebou basin, one of the country’s largest, has reached 51.2%, storing approximately 2.85 billion cubic meters of water. Meanwhile, the Oum Er-Rbia basin remains under pressure despite some improvement, recording a filling rate of 15.7%, equivalent to 782 million cubic meters.

In other regions, the Tensift basin has seen a sharp recovery, rising to 65.3%, while Souss-Massa stands at 41.7%. The Moulouya basin has reached 32.5%, and the Drâa–Oued Noun basin records 29.6%. The Guir–Ziz–Rhéris basin shows a more favorable situation, with reserves at 56.2%.

These figures highlight the positive impact of recent rainfall, although water stress remains a major challenge in several parts of the Kingdom.
