The analysis of flow conditions in Curuá-Una Dam, State of Pará, has the objective of evaluating the geotechnical feasibility of raising the operation level of the reservoir. Curuá-Una Power Plant, operated by REDE Celpa, is responsible for the electric supply of Santarém city. However, in periods of peak consumption, the energy production has been insufficient. Raising of Curuá-Una reservoir is an attractive alternative for increasing energy production. Curuá-Una Dam is distinguished for being constructed on sandy alluvial soil, which is a solution rarely used in the world. The earth dam is zoned, with maximum height of 26m and crest length of 600m. The geotechnical parameters were obtained from laboratory tests, field instrumentation data and construction reports. The numerical analyses were carried out with FLOW3D program. A back-analysis of flow behavior was performed for evaluating permeability parameters, taking into account results from piezometers installed in the dam and in the foundation materials. These parameters were used to predict pore pressures associated to different reservoir levels. Three levels of alert conditions (normal, attention and emergency) referring to the safety of the dam have been defined. The analyses indicated that the dam is operating within normal levels and a 1.5m rising of the reservoir shall not affect dams safety. The uplift pressures, due to different reservoir levels, have also been evaluated, with results showing a maximum increment of 5 percent.
