📋 Tender Overview
Furthermore, the FIDIC-type contract was chosen for the execution of the works, a model that ensures professional and efficient management of resources.The Government continues to move forward with technical actions that ensure the success of the Chavimochic Project, through the Subsectoral Irrigation Program (PSI), which carried out the geophysical studies, geological mapping and sound inspections in the restitution tunnel. These works are essential to guarantee the safety of the infrastructure.
In addition, the use of the FIDIC type contract has been chosen for the execution of the works, a model that ensures professional and efficient management of resources. This contractual approach is recognized for its ability to optimize construction processes and ensure that international quality standards are met.
With this, addendum 02 of Agreement 004-2020-MINAGRI-DM and the registration in Invierte.pe of the archaeological sanitation and environmental studies linked to the Palo Redondo dam and the Third Line of the Viru Siphon, in charge of the PSI, are being complied with.
Likewise, geotechnical campaigns have been initiated, such as diamond drilling in the dam and the natural dike: with the completion of two 20-meter-deep perforations, with plans to finish the work at the end of December.
These actions are part of the third and final stage of the Chavimochic Project, which aims to improve the irrigation system in the La Libertad region, benefiting thousands of agricultural producers and contributing to the countrys economic growth. The combination of technical advances and an efficient execution approach positions the Chavimochic project as a benchmark for water and agricultural infrastructure in the country.
With the third stage of the project, which includes the construction of the imposing Palo Redondo dam, 97 meters high, the aim is to increase the reservoir available for the Chavimochic irrigation system, benefiting more than 100,000 agricultural hectares.
The construction of the third line of the Viru Siphon will be key to increasing the flow by 50 cubic meters, ensuring the supply of water for agricultural production in the region. This progress will not only increase productivity, but will also strengthen agricultural exports, which in 2023 exceeded 10 billion dollars.
In addition to its agricultural impact, Chavimochic will contribute significantly to the economic reactivation of the region, improving irrigation in 48,000 hectares and creating 150,000 new jobs. It will also guarantee the supply of drinking water for Trujillo and optimize energy projects that will benefit more Peruvians.
With this emblematic project, Peru takes a firm step towards a future full of opportunities, demonstrating once again that large infrastructure works are key to the sustainable development of the country. Chavimochic will transform lives and lay the foundations for lasting and equitable economic growth.
