Below is a list of NCE’s recent and noteworthy Projects:
OLIFANTS RIVER WATER RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT PROJECT PHASE 2
Ndodana Consulting Engineers (in JV) were appointed to carry out the civil and structural design work. Current scope includes the extraction and distribution of water from De Hoop Dam to several end points through pipelines ranging from 1800mm to 1100mm in diameter. A 13MW Steelpoort pumpstation has been built along the pipeline and to conserve energy, the pumpstation is linked directly to the dam by a 40km long suction main. This segment of the project also makes use of fibre optic cables, linking all elements to a single remote control centre that monitors and controls developments. Further phases will include a 70km, 1100 diameter pumping main from the Flag Boshielo Dam to the town of Mokopane, for which three pumpstations of 4MW each are required. Bulk water pipelines from the 13MW Steelpoort pumpstation will be installed to supply the communities and new mining developments of the Lepelle-Nkumpi, Fetakgomo and Greater Tubatse municipalities in Limpopo. Upon completion, the project will link the De Hoop and Flag Boshielo dams and will carry bulk water to Steelpoort’s mines, surrounding communities and the Lebalelo Bulk Water Scheme.
