Innovation Under Pressure

Local Manufacturing Benefits

With the current schedule driven expansions in Saudi Arabia, its crucial to ensure timely deliveries of engineered components especially long lead equipment such as pressure vessels.

Contractors including proponents will always have better monitoring and inspection coverage of components being manufactured in Saudi Arabia.

Last minute changes, additions and or alterations to the manufactured component maybe spontaneously made even just before hydrotest.

Saving precious time on ship’s availabilities and oceanic transit and clearance times including setting off import duties and shipping costs particularly to large and heavy pressure vessels and associated equipment are sure benefits to be considered by International contractors working in Saudi Arabia.

On the other hand, local manufacturers ought to also deliver the competitive edge in terms of favorable prices to the contractor and consequently the proponent.

It is however important to very carefully gauge price competitiveness with monitored quality of workmanship, ordered material specification and sources of material specifically with pressure retaining parts at elevated and or sub-zero temperatures.

Enduring the foregoing and current intolerable scarcity of steel plates, other foreign plate mill alternatives have been sought by vessel manufacturers. Such may not be ideal for foreign vessel manufacturers for incomplete knowledge of proponent specific specifications which may well lead to incomplete specifications enforceability at the mill rendering immanent waiver requests undoubtedly causing schedule and const impacts that were not foreseen during bid evaluations.
