<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt"><I>CONSOLIDATED WATER REPORTS FIVE PLANTS OPERATIONAL ONE MONTH AFTER HURRICANE
IVAN HITS CAYMAN ISLANDS</I>



<P align="center" style="font-size: 12pt"><B>COMPANY SUPPLYING WATER TO ENTIRE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM</B>



<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands, B.W.I. October&nbsp;19, 2004 &#151; Consolidated Water
Co. Ltd. (Nasdaq National Market: &#147;CWCO&#148;), which develops and operates seawater
conversion plants and water distribution systems in areas where natural
supplies of drinking (i.e., potable) water are scarce, today announced that
production has resumed at five of the six seawater desalination plants operated
by the Company on Grand Cayman Island and that the Company is supplying water
to its entire distribution system on a 24/7 basis. &#147;We consider this an
outstanding achievement, in light of the significant damage caused last month
by Hurricane Ivan, the most devastating hurricane to hit the Cayman Islands in
the past 72&nbsp;years,&#148; stated Mr.&nbsp;Jeffrey Parker, Chairman of Consolidated Water
Co. Ltd.


<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">Electricity from the public utility has been restored to the West Bay plant,
which is now operating at 100% of capacity. The Governor&#146;s Harbour plant was
restored to 100% of capacity late last week, on power provided by Company
generators. The North Sound and Red Gate water production plants, which have
been able to access electrical power from the public utility, are operating at
100% of capacity. Containerized generator sets have been installed at the
Lower Valley plant, which is currently operating at 100% capacity. The
Britannia plant, the smallest of the six facilities, was significantly damaged
by storm surge that flooded the plant building with seawater, and it may be a
total loss. The Company is now meeting a reduced customer demand for water
without the Britannia plant production.


<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">The Company believes that lost sales during the period from late September&nbsp;11,
2004 to September&nbsp;17, 2004, when the Company was unable to produce any water,
coupled with lower demand due to the present closures of some tourism-related
properties within its distribution area, will negatively impact previous
earnings estimates for 2004. The exact impact to earnings is unknown at this
time.


<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">Management reports that Consolidated Water&#146;s headquarters staff continues to
operate out of temporary facilities and is providing excellent service to
customers. However, disruptions in administrative activities during the past
several weeks will require the Company to take a five-day extension in the
filing of its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September&nbsp;30, 2004. When the
hurricane hit Grand Cayman, the Company was in the process of implementing
various improvements in its internal control over financial reporting in
preparation for issuing management&#146;s first assessment of the effectiveness of
such internal control in the Company&#146;s Form 10-K for the year 2004, as mandated
by Section&nbsp;404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. However, such activities were
curtailed when the hurricane struck, and the past month has been devoted
primarily to the restoration of plant production, the repair of distribution
pipelines, and the

<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">provision of customer service. As a result, Consolidated&#146;s headquarters staff
is unlikely to complete all of the planned improvements required for management
and the Company&#146;s independent public accountants to issue unqualified
attestation reports on the Company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting.
Consolidated&#146;s headquarters staff may also need additional time to complete
all of the work required to file the Company&#146;s Form 10-K for the year 2004, and
the Company may have to take up to a fifteen-day extension to file that report
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">As noted in an earlier news release, the Company believes it has adequate
property and business interruption insurance to cover any damage caused by
Hurricane Ivan when it struck Grand Cayman on September&nbsp;11th and 12th.
Consolidated has retained the services of Reinsurance Solutions International
LLC to evaluate the damage caused by Hurricane Ivan and to assist the Company
in securing all of the property and business interruption insurance benefits
due under its policies.


<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">The Company will provide additional information to the investment community
when available.


<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. is engaged in the development and operation of
seawater conversion plants and water distribution systems in areas of the world
where naturally occurring supplies of potable water are scarce or nonexistent.
The Company currently operates reverse osmosis seawater conversion facilities
in the Cayman Islands, the British Virgin Islands, Barbados, Belize and the
Commonwealth of the Bahamas.
