Annexure A: Insurance provided by the Employer

These notes are provided as guidance to tendering contractors and the Contractor about the insurance
provided by the Employer. The Contractor must obtain its own advice. Details of the insurance itself are
available from the internet web link given below.

1. For the purpose of works contracts, insurance provided by Eskom (the Employer) has been arranged on
the basis of “project” or “contract” value, where the value is the total of the Prices at Completion of the
whole of the works including VAT.

A “project” is a collection of contracts or work packages to be undertaken as part of a single identified

capital expansion or refurbishment of a particular asset or facility.

A “contract” is a single contract not linked to or being part of a “project”.

Format A generally applies to Generation Division, Transmission Division and Distribution

Division projects and contracts. If a project or contract exceeds the Format A limit, the Eskom Group
Insurance need to be contacted for advice on how to formulate the insurance cover.

2. Tendering contractors should note that cover provided by the Employer is only per the policies available
on the internet web link listed below and may not be the cover required by the tendering contractor or as
intended by each of the listed insurances in the left hand column of the Insurance Table in clause 84.2.
In terms of clause 84.1 “the Contractor provides the insurances stated in the Insurance Table except any
insurance which the Employer is to provide”. Hence the Contractor provides insurance which the
Employer does not provide and in cases where the Employer does provide insurance the Contractor
insures for the difference between what the Insurance Table requires and what the Employer provides.

3. When the Marine Insurance is required the Contractor needs to obtain a copy of the latest edition of
Eskom’s Marine Policies Procedures available from Eskom Group Insurance.

4. Further information and full details of all Eskom provided policies and procedures may be
obtained from Eskom Group Insurance.

C2.1 Pricing assumptions: Option A

1. How work is priced and assessed for payment

Clause 11 in NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract, (ECC3) Option A states:

Identified and 11
defined terms 11.2 (20) The Activity Schedule is the activity schedule unless later changed in
accordance with this contract.

(27) The Price for Work Done to Date is the total of the Prices for

 each group of completed activities and

 each completed activity which is not in a group.

A completed activity is one which is without Defects which would either delay
or be covered by immediately following work.

(30) The Prices are the lump sum prices for each of the activities on the
Activity Schedule unless later changed in accordance with this contract.

This confirms that Option A is a lump sum form of contract where the work is broken down into activities,
each of which is priced by the tendering contractor as a lump sum. Only completed activities are assessed
for payment at each assessment date; no part payment is made if the activity is not completed by the
assessment date.

2. Function of the Activity Schedule

Clause 54.1 in Option A states: “Information in the Activity Schedule is not Works Information or Site
Information”. This confirms that specifications and descriptions of the work or any constraints on how it is to
be done are not included in the Activity Schedule but in the Works Information. This is further confirmed by
Clause 20.1 which states, “The Contractor Provides the Works in accordance with the Works Information”.
Hence the Contractor does not Provide the Works in accordance with the Activity Schedule. The Activity
Schedule is only a pricing document.

3. Link to the programme

Clause 31.4 states that “The Contractor provides information which shows how each activity on the Activity
Schedule relates to the operations on each programme which he submits for acceptance”. Ideally the
tendering contractor will develop a high level programme first then resource each activity and thus arrive at
the lump sum price for that activity both of which can be entered into the activity schedule.

4. Preparing the activity schedule

Generally it is the tendering contractor who prepares the activity schedule by breaking down the work
described within the Works Information into suitable activities which can be well defined, shown on a
programme and priced as a lump sum.

The Employer, in his Instructions to Tenderers or in a Tender Schedule, may have listed some items that
he requires the Contractor to include in his activity schedule and be priced accordingly.

It is assumed that in preparing his activity schedule the Contractor:

 Has taken account of the guidance given in the ECC3 Guidance Notes pages 19 and 20;

PART C2: PRICING DATA PAGE 21 C2.1 ECC3/A PRICING ASSUMPTIONS

ESKOM HOLDINGS SOC Ltd CONTRACT NO. _________
INSTALLATION OF THE SPHERICAL VALVE BYPASS VALVE AND ASSOCIATED PIPING ON UNITS 1 - 4 AT DRAKENSBERG
POWER STATION

 Understands the function of the Activity Schedule and how work is priced and paid for;
 Is aware of the need to link the Activity Schedule to activities shown on his programme;
 Has listed and priced activities in the activity schedule which are inclusive of everything necessary
and incidental to Providing the Works in accordance with the Works Information, as it was at the
time of tender, as well as correct any Defects not caused by an Employer’s risk;
 Has priced work he decides not to show as a separate activity within the Prices of other listed
activities in order to fulfil the obligation to complete the works for the tendered total of the Prices.
 Understands there is no adjustment to the lump sum Activity Schedule price if the amount, or
quantity, of work within that activity later turns out to be different to that which the Contractor
estimated at time of tender. The only basis for a change to the Prices is as a result of a
compensation event.

1 Description of the works

1.1 Executive overview

1.1.1 Background
Drakensberg Pumped Storage Scheme consists of four 250 MW Pump-turbine units. Each unit has a Main
Inlet Valve (MIV). The main function of the MIV is to isolate the Pump-turbine from the penstock. Each MIV
is equipped with bypass line and a hydraulically operated bypass valve. The bypass line is connecting the
MIV body with the Pump turbine spiral case extension. The function of the Main Inlet Bypass Valve and
Bypass Line is to achieve balance pressure between the upstream and downstream sides of the MIV, prior
to the Main Inlet Valve opening.
The four MIV’s are located in an underground cavern. Overhead cranes are available to assist with
maintenance of the MIV’s. Each of these MIV’s are installed in an open concrete pit, and personnel access is
gained by a series of cat-ladders.
Due to repeated failures of the existing bypass valves, excessive cavitation damage and the high vibration
experienced in the existing bypass line, the replacement of the complete bypass line and valve with a re-
designed bypass line configuration and a more modern design hydraulically operated Bypass Valve to be
applied. The diameter of the Bypass Line and Bypass Valve to be increased with the new design, and the
location of the bypass valve to be such that it fits directly to the pump-turbine spiral case extension pipe.

1.1.2 Scope of Work

 Machine and Weld the Spiral Case Extension Flange;
 In-situ welding of the Bypass Line Piping;
 Remove existing flange on the Spiral Case extension machine a hole in its place;
 A new flange to be welded in place of the original flange;
 A flange to be bolted to the Spherical Valve Body Inlet;
 The Bypass Line and Valve to be assembled and the piping welded in situ; and
 Pressure test the Bypass Line to ensure structural integrity.

1.2 Employer’s objectives and purpose of the works

The Employer’s objective is to ensure that the appropriate quality of manufacturing is applied and the
Spherical Valve Bypass Valve and Piping is manufactured and fitted to suit the new design thereof.

3 Engineering and the Contractor’s Design

3.1 Employer’s design

Drakensberg pumped storage scheme consists of four 250 MW Pump-turbine units. Each unit has a Main
Inlet Valve (MIV). The main function of the MIV is to isolate the Pump-turbine from the penstock. Each MIV
is equipped with bypass line and a hydraulically operated bypass valve. The bypass line is connecting the
MIV body with the Pump turbine spiral case extension. The function of the Main Inlet Bypass Valve and
Bypass Line is to achieve balance pressure between the upstream and downstream sides of the MIV, prior
to the Main Inlet Valve opening.
The four MIV’s are located in an underground cavern. Overhead cranes are available to assist with
maintenance of the MIV’s. Each of these MIV’s are installed in an open concrete pit, and personnel access is
gained by a series of cat-ladders.
Due to repeated failures of the existing bypass valves, excessive cavitation damage and the high vibration
experienced in the existing bypass line, the replacement of the complete bypass line and valve with a re-
designed bypass line configuration and a more modern design hydraulically operated Bypass Valve to be
applied. The diameter of the Bypass Line and Bypass Valve to be increased with the new design, and the
location of the bypass valve to be such that it shall be fitted directly to the pump-turbine spiral case extension
pipe.

Part 4: Site Information

1. General description
Drakensberg is a 1000MW Pumped storage scheme comprising of four reversible turbines rated
each at 250MW. The station is located in the Drakensberg Mountains in KwaZulu-Natal, close to the
town of Bergville. Construction and commissioning of the last units was accomplished in 1981. A
special feature of the station is that it is constructed entirely underground with only a dam wall, lift
shaft buildings and transmission lines visible at the surface. The Drakensberg Pumped Storage
Scheme is reached from Harrismith via the R49 to Kestel. Take the R74 turn-off to Bergville some
2.8 km along the R49. Turn left after 8.7 km and travel 23.5 km to the Kwazulu-Natal / Free State
boundary at the top of the Oliviershoek Pass. From there, travel 13.1 kms down the pass and turn
left. Follow the sign posted directions to the power station for approximately 9.5 km. The total
distance from Harrismith is approximately 60 km.
