THUNE DAM FEASIBILITY STUDY & PRELIMINARY DESIGN

JG Afrika was part of joint venture (JV) with Bergstan and Gauff Ingenieure that was appointed to undertake the detailed feasibility and preliminary design for the Thune Dam.

We completed a comprehensive review of the relevant background information and, in particular, the existing dam feasibility study and preliminary design, as well as reworked the entire feasibility study. The latter included a detailed review of the hydrological analysis, culminating in an integrated hydraulic model.

Following approval of the feasibility study, the JV undertook the detailed design, prepared tender documentation and undertook a costing and economic analysis.

JG Afrika was directly involved in reviewing the project water resources to determine yield models; reviewing the project’s preliminary design; detailed design of the project works, including drilling and material sourcing; and undertaking an economic evaluation for the project.
