No drilling machines or rigs are listed for sale in Riyadh today. Foundation, water-well and site investigation contractors in the capital can post a purchase request on EquipmentsFinder, and it is sent to verified suppliers across Saudi Arabia.
The drilling machines and rigs for sale page shows rigs from every region, and the category can also be checked for the Makkah Region and the Dammam Eastern Province. Other equipment for sale in the capital is on the Riyadh sale hub, and a rig for one contract can be taken on drilling rig hire.
Sellers list the rig's type, make, year, hours, maximum depth and diameter, and the tooling included, with a price if they choose. A buyer contacts the seller from the listing by phone or WhatsApp, inspects the rig and agrees terms directly. EquipmentsFinder does not take a commission, buyers pay nothing and listing is free.
Rotary rigs turn a drill string with a bit or auger to bore foundation holes, blast holes and exploration holes. Crawler-mounted versions carry their own mast and kelly bar and set up quickly on site.
Piling rigs bore or drive the bored, CFA or driven piles that carry tower and bridge foundations. Torque, mast height and the pile diameter range decide which jobs a rig can take.
Water-well rigs, often truck-mounted, drill deep boreholes with rotary or down-the-hole hammer methods for farms, compounds and industrial supply in Riyadh Province.
Core drills cut cylindrical samples for site investigation and mineral exploration, or bore precise openings in concrete. Portable units suit building work; skid or crawler rigs handle geotechnical holes.
Start with the hole: diameter, depth and the ground it passes through. Sand and gravel may need casing or drilling fluid to keep the hole open, while limestone and harder rock call for a down-the-hole hammer or rock tools and more torque. The rig's rated depth and diameter should exceed the job with a margin, and its size must suit site access.
There is no local price until a rig is listed here. Prices are set by each seller in Saudi riyals, shown on the listing or given when asked. Rig type, torque and depth rating, carrier, year, hours and the tooling supplied move the figure. Confirm VAT, transport and spare tooling with the seller.
Rigs offered in Riyadh city and across Riyadh Province will be listed here as sellers post them. Low-bed or road transport to a site in Olaya, North Riyadh or Al Kharj is agreed with the seller.
A request that states the rig type, hole size, depth and ground lets sellers match what they have. Other buyers' requests are on the inquiry board, and an owner with a rig to sell in Riyadh can post an ad for free.
No drilling machines or rigs are listed in Riyadh today, so a local price cannot be quoted. Price depends on the rig type, torque, depth and diameter rating, the carrier, year and hours, and how much tooling comes with it. Sellers elsewhere in Saudi Arabia show some prices on their listings and quote others when asked.
Define the holes first: diameter, depth, number and the ground conditions from site investigation. Piling needs a piling rig with enough torque, boreholes need a water-well rig, and sampling needs a core drill. Then check the rig fits the site access and that its rating covers the job with some margin for harder ground.
A used rig is cheaper and available sooner, but the rotary head, mast, kelly bar, hydraulics and winches carry heavy wear. A new rig comes with a warranty and support, which helps on a machine working daily. Many contractors buy used and budget for tooling and a rebuild; check how parts are supplied for the make.
Yes, and it should include a working test. Raise and lower the mast, run the rotary head under load, test the winches and check the mast and kelly for cracks or straightening. Look for hydraulic leaks and compare hours with the listing. A rig standing in another region can be checked by an independent engineer before transport.
The buyer should receive a sales invoice in their name, the seller's proof of ownership and a serial number matching the rig's plate. A truck-mounted rig usually carries vehicle registration as well, and its transfer is arranged with the seller. Ask for the manuals, service history and a tooling list, and confirm VAT treatment before paying.
It varies by seller and is stated on the listing or confirmed on contact. Some rigs are sold with augers, buckets, casing, drill rods and hammers, while others are offered bare. Tooling is a large part of the cost of putting a rig to work, so agree the exact list in writing before the price is settled.
