Panama- Only one company bid on Metro 3 study


(MENAFN- Newsroom Panama) e company formalized its interest in carrying out the geophysical studies required by the Panama Metro to build the underground section of line 3  that will connect Albrook with the City of the Future sector in the province of Panama Oeste.

The call had attracted three companies, but in the end only the Consortium Geofísica Túnel L3 , made up of Monitoriza, SA and Geotécnia Hidrogeología y Medio Ambiente SLP submitted a proposal for $163,177, an amount lower than the $181,951 projected by  Panama Metro.

In the preliminary analysis, the company met the minimum requirements set forth in the tender specifications and now the evaluation committee has to determine whether it has the technical experience and financial capacity to carry out the studies.

The company will have to drill at depths ranging from 10 meters to 65 meters, in the case of the area where the tunnel will pass under the channel of the Panama Canal.

The underground section, which will begin after the Albrook station and end about 300 meters before the Panama Pacifico station, will have a distance of 5.3 kilometers.

Once the contract is awarded, the company would have 5 months to carry out the studies.

A few days ago, the Panama Metro awarded Environmental Consulting & Services (EcosPanamá) the comprehensive environmental audit of the construction of line 3 for an amount of $185,000.
