The pipeline will be formed as a single line HDPE-100 pipe as in the diameter of 1600 mm and provide 75 million m3/year water and it will be the first project which will be constructed as in such length. Works to be performed: geophysical, geotechnical, bathymetric, oceanographic land & sea explorations; biofouling studies; environmental impact assestment; physical modelling and hydrodynamical studies; preparation of execution drawings and technical specifications for the off-shore and on-shore land structures which include the Alaköprü Dam on the Dragon River (Turkey) and the Geçitköy Dam (Cyprus), approx. 25 kms long on-shore steel transmission pipelines, a balancing tank (10.000 m3) and pumping stations.
