Lifting Equipment Inspection & Load Testing in Dammam
Proof load testing and thorough examination of lifting appliances and accessories, performed by competent persons and documented to client and international standards. Home to our head office, Dammam is the commercial heart of the Eastern Province, close to Aramco's headquarters, King Abdulaziz Port and the 2nd Industrial City.
Lifting Equipment Inspection in Dammam: local context
EES has its head office in Dammam, so inspectors reach the yards, fabrication shops and plant sites around the 2nd Industrial City and King Abdulaziz Port without mobilising from another city. Contractors serving Aramco and other Eastern Province operators commonly have lifting and heavy equipment inspected before it is mobilised to a plant or quay; EES examines each machine against manufacturer data and recognised standards and issues the report and certificate that client audits often ask for.
