    TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR DETAILED DESIGN AND SUPERVISION

    CONSULTING SERVICES RELATED TO DEEP SEA PORT IN SONADIA

    2. BackgroundBangladesh is situated in South Asia with a long coastline of about 580 km along theBay of Bengal. It has two sea ports. Chittagong in the south-east and Mongla in the

    south-west. International sea borne trade of Bangladesh has been using these two sea

    ports, with about 92% passing through Chittagong Port. The Main port installations of

    the Chittagong Port are situated along the banks of the river Karnafuli about 16 km

    from its outfall into the Bay of Bengal. The Mongla Port is located at the confluence

    of Pussur River and Mongla Nulla about 130 km inland from the bay. The maximum

    permissible drafts at the Chittagong Port ranges from 8.50 m to 9.20m with length

    restriction of vessels being 186 m. The maximum permissible draft at Mongla Port

    ranges from 7m to 8.5 m with length restriction of vessels being 225m. Therefore, the

    major problem confronting the two sea ports in Bangladesh is the limited draft andlength, which prohibit the entry and berthing of large vessels in the ports. As a

    consequence lighterage is required for a substantial portion of the import trade from

    anchorages in the Bay.

    Also the trend towards containerization persists and Bangladesh container traffic is

    growing on average @ 12% p.a. Containers are being carried to these ports by feeder

    vessels from Singapore, Malaysia and Colombo. The present trend in world shipping

    is to have bigger ships to derive economy of scale, but Bangladesh cannot realize the

    benefit due to limitations of its ports. The total tonnage of sea borne trade of

    Bangladesh is now over 32 million tones, which is growing on average @ 10% p.a.

    At present, eight export processing zones are operating in Bangladesh and more are

    expected to come up in the future. In addition, cargo can also be expected from Nepal,

    Bhutan. And possibly the northern part of China and the landlocked north-eastern

    states of India. To ensure proper services to the export processing zones and to serve

    the regional markets, deep draft vessels are necessary. Since there is no operational

    deep-sea port in Myanmar and also on the east coast of India, there is possibility that a

    deep sea port in Bangladesh can provide services to these areas in addition to

    supporting Chittagong and Mongla Port in handling increased volume of export

    import cargoes.

    Bangladesh economy is mainly based on import both in value and volume lean. The

    average maritime dependency factor is about 30% and 33% of annual revenue of the

    country is drawn form direct import tax only. With a population of about 141 million

    the economy is moving rapidly towards market economy. The Bangladesh

    government has emphasized diversifying its economy away from agriculture and has

    made industrial development a priority. In this backdrop the importance of an

    efficient port is unquestionable.

    The Bangladesh Government has also adopted the policy of promoting the

    development of infrastructure projects including ports through PPP for facilitating

    accelerated economic growth through the sufficient provision of infrastructure and to

    The port shall be connected by 40 km road with the National highway (Dhaka-

    Chittagong-Coxs Bazar-Teknaf). Through an extension of the Trans Asian

    Railway by about 45 km from the Dohazari Rly station towards Chokoria,

    Railway connectivity with the main system of Bangladesh may be established

    through a branch line from the DSP at Sonadia. The probable distance from

    the DSP to the possible connecting point of the extended Main line will beabout 40 route km. The existing inland waterways (class 1) having a

    maximum permissible draft of 3.96m shall connect the DSP with the sea ports

    of Chittagong and Mongla and the city of Dhaka.

    The power generation capacity being inadequate even for meeting the present

    demand of the national requirement, construction of a new thermal power

    plant dependent on coal or liquid fuel will be required for the DSP. Water for

    the DSP will not be available at the Sonadia Island and the adjoining area of

    Maheshkhali Island. The deep aquifers at the north part of the Maheshkhali

    Island will be the nearest water source for the DSP.

    The Project will require land acquisition and resettlement for the affected

    population. These shall have to be materialized through effective Land

    Acquisition Plan and Resettlement Plan. The Project area is situated in the

    Environmentally Critical Area (ECA) declared under Environmental

    Conservation Act of the GOB. Therefore, a detailed Environment Impact

    Bazar. (ix) The techno-economic feasibility study includes details of

    traffic forecast for the Deep Sea Port. Which forms the basis for

    decisions regarding the Project, the trade forecasts also form a

    fundamental part of the economic evaluation. In order to verify and

    update the economic evaluation the trade surveys should be repeated

    and future trade forecasts prepared by the DC. The DC should propose

    a trade forecast model with a range of predictions and for future

    growth up to 2055.

    The design consultant shall identify the extent of the above studies and

    any other studies considered appropriate that may serve the overall

    objective of reducing risk to an acceptable level. As part of this

    undertaking the design consultant should define in detail where and, if

    appropriate, how the additional studies should be executed and what

    their objectives are.

    x. Specifications and Contract Documents for Additional StudiesThe design consultant shall prepare and agree a strategy for

    undertaking the additional studies along with cost estimates and, asnoted earlier, a program for completion. The design consultant is

    required to prepare comprehensive detailed technical specification

    setting out the objectives of the studies, the required deliverables, and

    what information will be provided by the design consultant to form

    part of the studies. These technical specifications should, where

    appropriate, set out the minimum requirements for tests, e.g., scale,

    duration, sample type, etc.

    xi. Terms of Reference for Independent Checking ConsultantsThe roles of the Independent Checking Consultants will be to reviewthe design criteria, specifications, drawings, and other documents

    submitted by the design consultant and to check the detailed design to

    ensure that it meets the project objectives and is safe, buildable, and

    economic. The scope of the Independent Checking Consultants check

    is expected to be limited to the breakwaters, quay walls, channel,

    basins and other civil engineering works forming part of the Project as

    agreed with DSPA. The proposed terms of reference (TOR) should be

    endorsed by the POE.

    The Independent Checking Consultants will be appointed by DSPA.

    The design consultant shall assist DSPA with every aspect of the

    Independent Checking Consultants appointment including preparing

    tender documents and submission requirements, prequalification,

    assessment of tenders, and final appointment. The curricula vitae of the

    candidates should be reviewed and accepted by the POE.

    xiii. Panel of Experts (POE)The GOB will appoint a Panel of Experts (POE) to advise on the

    Project. The POE will be selected by the DSPA on the basis of their

    internationally/ nationally expertise in the various specialties required

    by the Project. It is anticipated that the POE will be retained throughout

    the Stage 1 & 2.

    The POE will meet the DC at regular intervals throughout Stage 1 and

    may request explanation or clarification from the DC regarding theDesign or any other aspect of the Project. The DC shall co- operate

    fully with the POE at all times, provide copies of all documentation

    requested and respond to requests for clarification or further

    information of any type in a prompt manner.

    The Panel of Experts (POE) should consist of internationally renowned

    and respected individual professionals who are widely acknowledged

    to be experts in their field. The members of the POE should possess

    among them acknowledged expertise and experience.

    It is possible that some of the members of the POE may possessexpertise and experience in more than one areas. It is to be expected

    that the POE should include some members of the earlier counterpart

    expert staffs for the techno-economic feasibility study project, since

    their experience there would be helpful in this case.

    It is expected that the POE will include some experts resident in

    Bangladesh and familiar with the procedures and systems for design

    and construction in Bangladesh, as well as other experts drawn from

    around the world. Ideally, the numbers of Bangladeshi and

    International experts should be approximately balanced.

    The POE is required to provide expert advice in connection with the

    project as required from time to time by DSPA, and to carry out

    periodic reviews of the procedures followed and the results produced

    by the design consultant, Independent Checking Consultants, and

    construction contractors throughout the Project.

    The POE shall organize itself under the leadership and guidance of its

    chair so that any comments, suggestions, or advice from any of its

    members are assembled, reviewed, and agreed upon by all its members

    and submitted to DSPA as comments, suggestions, or advice from the

    POE as a whole.

    23

    During the detailed design project, the members of the POE will each

    receive from DSPA copies of monthly progress reports and selected

    other reports prepared by the design consultant and Independent

    Checking Consultants. Any comments and observations on these

    reports made by the individual members of the POE as a result of their

    review shall be assembled by the chairman and submitted to DSPAwithin 21 days of receipt.

    Similarly, during the construction project, the members of the POE

    will each receive from DSPA copies of monthly reports of progress on

    the construction works and selected other reports. Any comments and

    observations on these reports shall be assembled by the chair and

    submitted to DSPA within 21 days of receipt, as in detailed design

    project.

    Each mission of the POE is expected to last approximately 1 week and

    should include meetings with DSPA, the design consultant, thecontractors (during construction phase ) and other key organizations to

    discuss matters of importance at that time. During construction project,

    these missions shall include a visit to the site to inspect the works and

    enquire about progress, quality control, materials and workmanship

    standards, etc.

    At the end of each mission, the POE shall submit a report to DSPA

    making any observations, comments, or suggestions that the members

    of the POE collectively consider should be made, and collating

    together any interim comments that have been made by the POE

    members during the previous 3-month period.

    On some occasions, DSPA may request one or more members of the

    POE to visit an off-site manufacturing, fabrication, or testing facility to

    conduct an inspection and provide a written report. This may either

    coincide with a normal 3-monthly mission to Bangladesh or require an

    additional visit.

    In addition, the POE is expected to respond to any specific queries on

    particular technical issues on which DSPA may require independent

    expert advice during the course of the project. Such queries will be put

    to the POE through the chair, and the response will be providedthrough the chair.

    In the event that any disagreement arises between the design

    consultants and the Independent Checking Consultants regarding a

    matter relating to the acceptability or suitability of the design, the

    design criteria or any other matter that cannot easily be resolved

    between them, the POE may be asked by DSPA to review the issues in

    question and provide an independent opinion on the matter to help the

    design consultant and checking consultant reach agreement.

    xiv. Project Cost Estimate

  • 7/28/2019 TERMS OF REFERENCE.pdf

    24/51

    Ministry of ShippingDeep Sea Port in Sonadia Terms of Reference

    24

    The design consultant shall prepare a preliminary cost estimate broken

    down into the different contracts showing the projected expenditure

    profile throughout the Project on a month-by-month basis for each

    construction contract and any other works associated with the Project.

    xv. Economic and Financial EvaluationThe design consultant shall develop economic and financial models

    like those produced in earlier feasibility studies. They shall include

    evaluations that are directly comparable to those produced previously

    but should be expanded and refined in whatever way that the design

    consultant sees as appropriate. The economic evaluation will output the

    predicted economic internal rate of return, benefit-to-cost ratio, and net

    present value for the Project. Sensitivity studies should be undertaken

    in a way similar to those done at the feasibility stage. The financial

    evaluation aims to measure and evaluate financial aspects of the

    Project including, but not limited to, (i) analysis of port tariff andpredicted traffic volume, (ii) analysis of utility companies costs (iii)

    tax and customs revenues, (iv) project construction and port operation

    and channel maintenance costs, and (v) analysis of probable financing

    methods, both private and conventional. From this financial evaluation

    the design consultant shall prepare income and expenditure profiles for

    the Project.

    xvi. Review Possibilities for Public-Private PartnershipsThe design consultant is required to appoint an expert in public-private

    partnership (PPP) and finance to review options for PPP on any aspectsof the Project. Some work has already been undertaken looking at PPP

    options. This is to be reviewed and updated for both the construction

    and post-construction stages. In addition the design consultant shall

    explore, with DSPA and donor agencies, the possibility of gap funding

    on PPP schemes. It is currently considered that there is limited scope

    for PPP involvement in the project but that the greatest opportunity for

    PPP is most likely in the port operation and channel maintenance stage

    of the Project. The design consultant shall report on any identified PPP

    opportunities and pay particular attention to any possible PPP models

    for the operation phase, making recommendations on the preferred

    options.

    xi. To compile all relevant design criteria, the following mathematicalmodeling should be carried out:

    1. Wind/wave hind cast analysis to predict offshore waveconditions

    2. Offshore to near shore wave transformations to assess waveconditions at the location of the breakwater

    3. Current modeling to assess current patterns around thebreakwater

    4. Wave penetration to assess wave conditions behind thebreakwater

    5. Sediment transport modeling to assess sedimentation anderosion around the breakwater

    xii. The mathematical modeling exercises can be carried out locally byWMA using internationally recognised software from any recognized

    Hydraulics Institute. Alternatively, it may also be subcontracted to

    specialized institutes.

    xiii. When contemplating the basic design of the breakwaters, a range ofbreakwater types should be considered. These include:

    1. Rubble mound breakwaters (composed of rock and/or concretearmour units), either statically or dynamically stable,

    submerged or emerged (with or without overtopping)

    2. Monolithic breakwaters (like a caisson, block wall or masonrystructure), generally emerged and with limited overtopping

    3. Composite breakwaters (combining a monolithic element witha rubble mound berm or base), generally emerged and with

    limited overtopping

    xiv. The optimum choice of breakwater design should be made byconsidering the following factors:

    1. Availability of construction materials (and costs)2. Site conditions (soil and water)3. Methods of construction4. Future maintenance of the structures5. Wave penetration to assess wave conditions behind the

    breakwater
