No horizontal directional drilling (HDD) rigs are listed for sale in the Makkah Region today, so utility contractors in Jeddah, Mecca, Taif and KAEC have nothing local to compare yet. A single HDD rig request reaches verified sellers across Saudi Arabia. The horizontal drilling rigs for sale page shows national stock, while Riyadh and the Dammam Eastern Province are listed on their own pages.
An HDD listing gives the make, pullback and torque ratings, year, hours, and the drill rods, tooling and mud system included, with a SAR price if the seller publishes it. Buyers phone or WhatsApp the seller from the listing to arrange a demonstration and negotiate. Using EquipmentsFinder costs the buyer nothing.
Small rigs for short bores under driveways, pavements and single roads, installing fibre, telecom ducts and small water and power lines. They fit into tight streets in older Jeddah districts.
The general utility contractor's rig for longer crossings under main roads, larger water and sewer lines and multiple ducts in one bore, typical of infrastructure work in Mecca and North Jeddah.
Heavy rigs for long, large-diameter pipeline crossings under highways, wadis and industrial plots such as those at KAEC. They need a sizeable mud recycling system and a trained crew.
Pullback force sets the length and diameter of pipe the rig can pull back through the bore; torque sets how large a reamer it can turn. Ground decides the tooling: sand and silt near the Jeddah coast need good drilling fluid to keep the hole open, while rock inland calls for a mud motor or rock tooling. A locating and tracking system, drill rods and a mud mixing unit are part of a working package.
No SAR price range is available while no HDD rigs are listed in the region. Sellers set the figure and show it on the listing or quote on request. Pullback class, hours, rod and tooling inventory, mud system and tracking equipment all affect a used rig's value. Delivery, VAT and operator training are agreed with the seller.
When listings appear here, each will show its city, from the Islamic Port and Al Balad to Al Hamra, the airport and North Jeddah, Obhur, Mecca and Taif. Owners can list an HDD rig free; the Makkah Region buying page links other machines, and HDD rig hire suits a single crossing.
State the pullback class, typical bore length and pipe size, ground conditions, budget in SAR and location; sellers reply on the inquiry board.
No HDD rig is listed for sale in the region today, so there is no going SAR price to report. Pullback class is the main driver, followed by year, hours and what comes with the rig: rods, reamers, a mud system and a tracking unit can add a lot. A request to sellers returns current asking prices for similar packages.
Base the choice on the longest bore and the largest pipe the rig must pull. A compact rig suits short service crossings and fibre; a mid-size rig suits road crossings and larger utility lines; a large rig suits long pipeline crossings. Ground matters too, with rock requiring a mud motor or rock tooling and enough fluid capacity.
A new rig offers a warranty, current controls and dealer training, which helps a contractor entering HDD work. A used rig costs much less and suits an experienced crew, provided the carriage, rod loader, vice, rotation gearbox and hydraulics are in good order. The condition and count of drill rods should be checked, since they are costly to replace.
Yes. Sellers usually arrange a demonstration through the phone or WhatsApp number on the listing. Watch the rig make and break rod joints, thrust and pull back, and rotate under load. Check the rod threads and straightness, the vice jaws, the carriage rollers and the hydraulic hoses. Ask to see the tracking system and mud pump running too.
An invoice or sale contract recording the rig's serial number, the list of rods and tooling included, the price and payment terms completes the sale. Proof of ownership and service records should come with it. Import documents stay with an imported rig. Confirm with the seller what training or commissioning, if any, is part of the deal.
A rig alone does not complete a bore. Drill rods, a drill head and reamers, a drilling fluid mixing and pumping system, and a locating and tracking unit are all required. A vacuum excavator and a support truck help on site. Buyers should check which of these items come with the rig and price the rest separately.
