SMEC in Botswana
SMEC has operated in Botswana since 1986, and established a permanent office in Gaborone in 2006. Since then, SMEC’s projects have included: major highway and bridge upgrades; the provision of project management, design review and construction supervision on the Lotsane Dam project; a solid waste management contract at Jwaneng Diamond mine, the world’s richest diamond mine; and the preparation of a National Water Master Plan and Energy Efficiency Audit for the Water Utilities Corporation treatment plants, pumping stations and offices.
More recently, SMEC has been engaged by Botswana Power Corporation to provide electrical engineering consultancy services for the Orapa 220/33kV substation, as part of the Orapa Substation Capacity Increase Project.
