This paper presents the process of estimating the design flood for a large dam located in the equatorial region. The method applied was to estimate an exceptional synthetic storm and consequently, the corresponding hydrograph. Advantage was taken of techniques for evaluating storm potential, developed for temperate latitudes. The peak flow was computed as 28.500 m3/s. Because of limitations in the applied procedure it was not possible to assign probability level to this event.
