Pneumatic testing
Where water cannot be used, pneumatic tests with the additional precautions and exclusion zones they require.
Hydrotest services in Riyadh for Riyadh Second & Third Industrial Cities, power generation plants and other sites across Riyadh. We test piping, pipelines and vessels to the approved test pack, then drain, dry and reinstate the system.
Hydrotest in Riyadh
Riyadh, the capital, is the Kingdom's largest manufacturing centre, with the Second and Third Industrial Cities, large power generation plants, and the water transmission systems that bring desalinated water inland from the coast. Major construction and infrastructure projects run continuously, and the dry inland climate brings extreme summer heat and dust.
Water transmission pipelines, power plant systems, factory piping and building services on Riyadh's large projects all need hydrotesting before handover. Summer temperatures affect test pressure readings, so we allow time for temperature stabilisation and record temperature alongside pressure through the hold period.
Our hydrotest services in Riyadh use the same calibrated equipment, procedures and reporting we use on sites across the Kingdom.
Testing ties in with our other services: test blinds and flanges are made up by bolt torquing, damaged faces found during testing are repaired by flange facing, and lines are dried afterwards by nitrogen purging.

FAQ
Sun and heat change water temperature, which changes pressure. We allow the system to stabilise, record temperature with pressure, and test at times of day that limit large swings.
Yes. In Riyadh we support both operating plants and construction projects, including utility, infrastructure and building services piping, working to the main contractor's schedule and procedures.
Yes. Our hydrotest services in Saudi Arabia include draining the system after the test and drying it with air or nitrogen to the dew point or dryness your commissioning procedure requires.
