Odisha is building an in stream storage structure across the Bheden river near Samasingha village in Jharsuguda at ₹126.08 crore on EPC turnkey, and the Samasingha storage structure tender closes at 5:00 PM on 18 November 2026.
A barrier in the river, plus the power to run it
The scope covers construction of the Samasingha in stream storage structure across the Bheden near Samasingha village in Kolabira block, Jharsuguda district, on an EPC turnkey basis including the power connectivity system and operation and maintenance of the complete works. The Chief Engineer, Basin Manager for the Upper Mahanadi Basin at Burla is the inviting authority, reference CE AND BM – MB- 10/2026-2027 online.
An in stream storage structure holds water back inside the river channel rather than flooding a reservoir behind an embankment. It means gates, a barrage style floor and bank protection, and far less land acquisition than a conventional dam.
Turnkey means the gates are yours too
The portal records a turn key form of contract with 912 days. That bundles the civil structure, the gates and hoists, the power connection and the operation period into one scope, so you need either hydro mechanical capability in house or a firm partner for it. The civil contractor who treats the gates as an afterthought loses money on a job like this.
EMD is ₹1,26,08,000 with exemption allowed and the fee is ₹10,000. The notice went up on 5 October 2026 and bids open at 11:30 AM on 19 November 2026, so there is a month to put the consortium together.
Two dry seasons in the river bed
Nine hundred and twelve days means two working seasons between monsoons, and the river dictates both. Diversion and coffer dam work comes first, with excavators and tippers moving the bed material and building the bund. The floor and piers need continuous concrete, so transit mixers with a standby and a crane over the gate structure.
Bank protection and approach work take a compactor and a backhoe loader. Jharsuguda is a mining and industrial district, so machines, operators and crushed aggregate are all available locally, which takes real cost out of the bid.
