Pneumatic testing
Where water cannot be used, pneumatic tests with the additional precautions and exclusion zones they require.
Hydrotest services in Abha for Abha & Khamis Mushait industrial areas, water and power utilities and other sites across Abha. We test piping, pipelines and vessels to the approved test pack, then drain, dry and reinstate the system.
Hydrotest in Abha
Abha and neighbouring Khamis Mushait sit in the Asir highlands at over 2,000 metres, with a mild climate, seasonal rain and mountain terrain. Industrial work is centred on local industrial areas, water and power utilities, and infrastructure projects serving one of the Kingdom's fastest-growing regions.
Water networks, utility piping and infrastructure systems in Abha and Khamis Mushait are hydrotested before handover. On mountain pipelines we account for elevation changes in the test pressure so every point is tested correctly.
Our hydrotest services in Abha are planned with your operations and safety teams and carried out under your permit-to-work.
Most systems we test have just been modified, often with new sections installed after pipe cold cutting, and once the test is passed we can dry them by nitrogen purging before commissioning.

FAQ
Yes. We test water mains and network sections to the specified pressure and hold time, allowing for elevation along the route.
Yes. We cover Abha, Khamis Mushait and the surrounding Asir region, planning travel and equipment transport through the mountain roads in advance.
The test pressure comes from the design code and your specification. For process piping to ASME B31.3, for example, it is normally 1.5 times the design pressure, adjusted for temperature. We work to the value in the approved test pack.
