Bakun Hydro Project, Philippines

The 70MW Bakun Hydroelectric Project,  a traditional run of the river scheme in northern Luzon, comprises a 9.6km long “horse-shoe” shaped tunnel, constructed by Drill+Blast, which transfers water from the weir/intake structures to the two 35MW turbines located in a surface powerhouse some 579m below.

ICC were retained to advise and assist in determining whether any damage had occurred to the nominally unlined tunnel and to the confined steel pipeline during the commissioning of the facility and thus establish whether there was a valid claim.
