Namibia: Salini Impregilo completes Neckartal dam

Italy’s Salini Impregilo has announced the completion of the Neckartal multipurpose dam on the Fish River near Keetmanshoop in southern Namibia. The 80-metre-high curved gravity roller-compacted concrete dam, with a crest length of approximately 518 metres, is now the country’s largest dam, with a storage capacity almost three times that of the Hardap dam, the next largest, which is located upstream close to Mariental in the Hardap region.
