No horizontal drilling rigs are listed for rent in the Makkah Region today, so there is no rig yet to compare for a cable crossing under a Jeddah road, a water main in Mecca or a fibre route near KAEC. An HDD request giving the bore length, the product pipe diameter and the ground reaches verified suppliers across Saudi Arabia. The horizontal drilling rigs for rent page shows national stock, and the Riyadh and Dammam Eastern Province pages cover the other regions.
Listings carry the supplier's phone and WhatsApp number, and EquipmentsFinder takes no commission on the hire.
Small rigs for telecom ducts, electrical cables and house connections under driveways and footpaths, with short bores and small pull-backs.
The common class for water and gas mains, road and junction crossings and longer duct runs, with more thrust and pull-back for larger pipes.
Heavy rigs for long river, highway and pipeline crossings with large-diameter steel or polyethylene pipe. They need a big site and support equipment.
Pull-back force is the main figure: it must exceed the drag of the pipe being pulled through the bore, which rises with length and diameter. The reamer size usually exceeds the pipe size, so the rig needs enough torque to open the hole. Sandy coastal ground in Jeddah needs good drilling fluid to hold the bore open; rock in the hills towards Taif needs rock tooling or a mud motor.
No rig is listed in the region, so no SAR rate can be given. HDD is often priced per metre bored as a full service, while bare rig hire runs by the day or week. Tooling, the mud mixing and recycling unit, the locating system, water, disposal of spent fluid and VAT vary by supplier.
When rigs are listed here, each will show its home city. Owners can list an HDD rig free, and rigs for purchase are on the horizontal drilling rigs for sale page.
Send the bore length and depth, pipe material and diameter, ground information, the site and the dates. Requests show on the inquiry board, and the Makkah Region rental hub links the excavator category for digging entry and exit pits.
No HDD rig is listed in the Makkah Region at present, so there is no rate in SAR to quote. Pricing depends on rig size, ground and whether the job is bare hire or a full per-metre service with crew, mud and locating. Ask suppliers to state what is included so their quotes can be set side by side.
Start from the bore length, the depth and the outside diameter of the pipe or duct bundle. Those set the pull-back force and torque the rig needs. Add the ground type, because rock and loose sand change the tooling and fluid. A supplier will then propose a rig class with a safety margin on pull-back.
HDD rigs are usually supplied with a driller and a locator, because steering the bore is skilled work, though some suppliers rent bare rigs to experienced contractors. The arrangement varies by supplier and is stated on the listing or confirmed when you contact them. The operator needs a valid licence for the machine class.
A compact rig on a short duct crossing can be finished in a day, and some suppliers will quote for that. Larger rigs need a day or more to set up the mud system and anchor the rig, so a minimum term is common. Describe the crossing and suppliers will estimate the days.
With no supplier listed in the region, no delivery radius can be given from the data. Compact rigs move on a trailer and travel easily; large rigs and their mud units need several trucks. A supplier in Jeddah, Riyadh or Dammam Eastern Province can quote for Mecca, Taif or KAEC once the site is known.
A mud mixing system and a water supply, a walkover or wireline locating system, drill rods, reamers and a pulling head, plus an excavator for the entry and exit pits and a means of disposing of spent fluid. Many suppliers bundle these with the rig, so ask what the quote covers.
