Basic and detail design with procurement management for the Cuajone mine main water pipeline, Peru
Southern Peru conducts copper mining operations in the Moquegua region of southern Peru. Water for processing copper discharges through a 53 km pipeline in operation for over 40 years, which regularly faces stoppages due to problems along the line. Fichtner develops the basic and detailed engineering for the construction of a new line parallel to the existing one without interrupting current operation. In addition, Fichtner is responsible for procurement management for the main equipment.
