The works have been finalized by the Directorate of Ongoing
Projects under the State Agency for Water Resources of Azerbaijan
and entrusted to the “Hidro Inshaat Servis” Limited Liability
Company (LLC) under a signed contract.
The contract sets the cost of the renovation and restoration
works at 15.9 million manat ($9.35 million). The Directorate of
Ongoing Projects had earlier announced a tender for the repairs at
the reservoir.
The Sarsang Reservoir, situated on the Tartar River, one of
Azerbaijan’s most abundant rivers, is the largest water basin in
the Karabakh economic region, with a total capacity of 560 million
cubic meters. The dam stands 125 meters high, stretches 555 meters
in length, and spans 10.2 meters in width. The reservoir provides
irrigation to over 96,000 hectares of farmland across the Barda,
Tartar, Agdam, Agjabedi, Yevlakh, and Goranboy regions. In
addition, a hydroelectric power station with a total capacity of 50
megawatts has been constructed on the dam, contributing to the
region’s energy supply.
