The most effective way is to drain the fuel tank completely and then refill it with diesel fuel, add a bottle of methelated spirits to the fuel tank to ensure the water is no longer there, the metho breaks down the water particles and allows them to be burnt with the diesel, also change your fuel filter, as it can hold water, also the tank can become rusted /corroded due to the water being inside,

Diesel fuel is hygroscopic and absorbs water. It's not unusual for diesel vehicles to have water in the fuel. Use a fuel conditioner and water remover, and use the water separator drain if it has one.
