Project narrative
On December 9, 2015, China Development Bank (CDB) entered into a $15 billion facility agreement with the Government of Angola (see Record ID#66847). The facility is an oil prepayment facility with repayments being serviced through receivables from a designated oil contract. The facility agreement has a maturity of 12 years and its availability period expired on December 9, 2017. One of the subsidiary loans approved through this facility was a loan in 2016 for the Jamba Water Supply System Construction Project. The proceeds of this loan were used to finance a $20,211,370.18 commercial contract with China National Machinery Industry Corporation Group (SINOMACH). The project involved the construction of a new water supply system in the town of Jamba within Huila Province. The project entered implementation on September 13, 2016, but its precise implementation end date is unknown. See Record ID#65748 for other water and energy projects financed through the 2015 CDB facility.
