CAPITAL COSTS
Site preparation, access: 15 000 LD is allowed for general site clearance, landscaping levelling on the site itself. Costs of landscaping, roads, etc. in the surrounding area are excluded. An additional 5 000 LD is allowed in the second phase to level raceway areas and to create the second roadway.
Office/services building: an initial 300 m2 is allowed, increasing to 500 m2 in phase II. A specialised training building, accomodation, etc., is not included. Estimated price: 180 LD/m2 is allowed; this could be reduced by using modular prefabricated systems.
Hatchery building: an initial 525 m2 is allowed; it is assumed that this will suffice for the second phase. Estimated price for good quality agricultural/industrial warehouse building: 180 LD/m2 ; this could be reduced to 80 LD/m2 for a greenhouse.
Pumps, pump station: a pump well, screen, access, etc., is estimated at 8 000 LD; this is sufficient for both phases. For Phase I, four pumps of 60 kw are assumed at an estimated 7 500 LD/pump, inclusive of local cabling, fittings, central gear. For Phase II a further three pumps would be used. An additional 3 000 LD is allowed for pump bases, installation, etc.; a further 2 000 for phase II.
Water supply and drainage: Phase I: Main pipeline, 2 × 750 mm, 120 m at 50 LD/m including placing, filling; 12 000 distribution bars, allow 1 500 LD, main channel, 35 m at 100 LD/m inclusive; 3 500 LD, raceway channel, 130 m at 60 LD/m inclusive 7 800 LD, other supplies allow 2 000 LD. Drainage 250 m at 20 LD/m allow 5 000 LD. Total 31 800 LD Phase II Add 2 × 750 mm pipeline; 12 000, second raceway channel 7 800 LD, drainage 5 000 LD, Total, including Phase I: 56 600 LD
Hatchery systems: Phase I: Total tank cost 11 500 LD, allow 60% extra for recycle system, 6 900 LD, plus 40 LD/m2 for heating, power, aeration; 21 000 LD Total 39 400 LD
Phase II. Allow additional 3 000 LD for miscellaneous improvements Total 42 400
Fingerling raceways: Phase I (16) × 15 × 1.5 × 1.2 m deep, reinforced concrete construction, with inlets, outlets, fittings at 25 LD/m3; 10 800 LD. Phase II (32) 21 600 LD
Ongrowing raceways:
| Phase I 45 × 40 × 3.0 × 1.2 m deep at 20 LD/m3 : | 129 600 LD |
| Phase II 95 " " " " | 273 600 LD |
AquacuLture equipment
Allow 50 LD/t normal production for miscellaneous equipment, plus 5 000 LD (Phase I), 10 000 (Phases I + II) for feeding system
Hatchery and Laboratory equipment: allow 10 000 LD, 15 000 LD respectively
Main services: power supplies; allow 10 000 LD for main supply to site and pumps, 5 000 LD for switch gear, 5 000 LD for site cabling, wiring office/service area. Allow 200 kw generator capacity, phase I, 12 000 LD, double for Phase II, 22 000 LD
Fresh water supplies: allow 2 000 LD for supply, 2 000 LD for storage and distribution. No extra for Phase II.
Waste treatment; septic tank, chlorine
dosage allow 5 000; drainage piping, allow 3 000 LD. Phone Link: allow 1 000 LD
Vehicles and miscellaneous equipment: Pick-up, cars, etc., allow 12 000 LD, 18 000 LD Phase I, II respectively. Allow additional 8 000 LD for site equipment.
