Documents of Lower Seti (Tanahu) Hydropower Project – Quotations for Physical Hydraulic
Model Studies - reg.

Sir,
With reference to captioned work, the hydraulic model studies for Lower Seti (Tanahu)
Hydropower Project is proposed to analyze the silt flushing studies by reproduction of requisite
length of reservoir in large scale (preferably larger than 1:30) for simulation of the suspended
sediments in the physical model as per the ToR.
Accordingly, Quotations were collected from the agencies, however, Hydrolab Pvt. Ltd., has
conveyed that the model of 1:30 cannot be accommodated currently due to the space and
discharge limitations of the existing laboratory facility. Whereas other agencies has submitted the
quotations to carry out the studies in 1:30 scale by associating with reputed Indian govt. agencies.
In view of above, JV received the quotations to carry out the Physical Hydraulic Model Studies for
Lower Seti Hydropower Project as per the ToR from the following agencies. The comparative
chart of the quotations, in NPR excluding VAT (as applicable) is given below.

Cost (NPR) Cost (NPR)


S. No. Agency Name
(in 1:60 Scale) (in 1:30 Scale)
1 Hydrolab Pvt. Ltd. 17,566,000 -
2 Universal Research and Development P. Ltd. 16,800,000 32,500,000
3 RIDE Consultant (Pvt.) Ltd. 19,500,000 40,000,000

In this regard, JV is of the view that as project site is located downstream of Upper Seti due to
which sediment flushing studies from reservoir of Lower Seti HPP is of major concern, therefore,
model of 1:30 scale is preferable. Further, it is to submit that additional 5% of the contract value
shall be levied as handling fee as per the original contract. However, additional resources required
for regular site visits of JV personnel for monitoring, progress reporting, preparation of additional
design drawings (as & when required), and any other services may be communicated to us for
submission of JV’s proposal.
Assuring our best services at all times.
Thanking you. Yours Truly,

(Dilip Sutradhar)
