The Oporelu Canal (Romanian: Canalul Oporelu) is an artificial canal built along the right bank dyke of the Arcești Lake on the Olt River in Romania. Its role is to intercept the right bank tributaries of the Olt river and to convey them downstream of the Arcești Dam.[1] The Oporelu canal is registered as an artificial river in the Romania's official registry of rivers.
