Chile launches studies tenders under US$6bn reservoir plan
The waterworks division (DOH) of Chile’s public works ministry (MOP) has launched feasibility study tenders for two reservoir projects worth US$233mn which are part of the government’s US$6bn program to build 26 dams.
The first contract has a 3.9bn-peso (US$5.5mn) budget and entails the feasibility study for the US$58mn Codegua reservoir including a 15.5Mm3 (million cubic meters) dam in south central O’Higgins region.
Technical and economic offers will be opened on March 30. Documents can be seen here, in Spanish.
The second contract has a 3.2bn-peso budget and is for the US$175mn La Chupalla reservoir in Valparaíso region.
The dam will be located near La Ligua municipality and have a capacity of 56Mm3 and bids will also be opened on March 30. Documents can be seen here, in Spanish.
DOH head Claudio Darrigrandi told a senate committee last month that the entity will advance studies for seven reservoirs this year, including the Codegua and La Chupalla projects.
