The story of this project in Dammam is a story of how complex engineering solutions are being transformed into a reliable system that will support the city for many years ahead.
Covering 95,588 metres of pipeline and valued at SAR 782 million, the project forms a key element of Dammam’s Strategic Water Network — a system designed to transport large volumes of water securely between critical elements of the city’s infrastructure. Every stage of delivery requires coordination, timing, and precision.
Under the leadership of Project Manager Engr. Mohammed Hasan Taha from Al Yamama Co. for Trading & Contracting, the team is building a system designed not only to be successfully installed, but to operate dependably long after completion. The project is being implemented for the NWC and once completed in October 2025. This section of the Strategic Water Network will represent far more than kilometres of installed pipelines and valves — it will become an essential part of Dammam’s long-term water security.
As part of the project, the following valves and equipment were supplied and installed:
• Butterfly Valves (Series 756), DN 300 to DN 1600 — 253 units
• Dismantling Joints (Series 265) 188 units
• Check Valves — 9 units
• Gate Valves, DN 100 to DN 400
• Air Valves, DN 100 to DN 200
• AUMA Actuators
Installation works were carried out with strict adherence to technical specifications, quality standards, and safety requirements. Documentation, testing, and third-party inspections were conducted in parallel with installation, allowing the project to maintain its pace and successfully achieve all required approvals without delays.
