Budget estimate

$2,000,000 – $5,000,000

Based on typical port dredging contracts of comparable depth and length, the total contract value is likely to fall between $2 million and $5 million. The lower end reflects a modest channel length and limited sediment disposal, while the higher end accounts for extensive dredging volume, specialized equipment rental, and stringent environmental compliance required at a major international terminal.
