Rigger Level 2 Training & Certification in Yanbu

A Rigger Level 2 course, also known as an advanced rigger course, for experienced riggers who plan and rig lifts rather than only follow instructions. Candidates calculate load weight and centre of gravity, select multi-leg slings and hardware, prepare rigging plans and recognise when a tandem or complex lift needs engineering input. Content is aligned to your client's Level 2 definition. Yanbu Industrial City is a major petrochemical and refining centre on the Red Sea.

Rigger Level 2 Training in Yanbu: local context

Large construction and maintenance campaigns at Yanbu Industrial City and busy cargo operations at Yanbu Commercial Port typically draw contractor crews that are mobilised quickly, and some operators and riggers may be unfamiliar with the site and its equipment. Supervised practical assessment on the machine type each person will actually use is the most reliable check of competence. EES delivers crane, forklift and rigging training on site in Yanbu, in English or Arabic, and issues competency cards to those who pass.

What we deliver in Yanbu

  • ✓Load weight and centre of gravity: estimating and calculating mass, locating the centre of gravity and checking it against marked weights and documents
  • ✓Sling angle and leg loading: multi-leg slings, unequal leg angles and load sharing, how many legs actually carry the load on three- and four-leg slings, and calculating leg loads to select slings of adequate capacity
  • ✓Rigging plans: sketches, equipment lists, sling and hardware selection, capacity checks and the information handed to the crane operator and lift supervisor
  • ✓Complex configurations: lifting beams and spreader bars, offset centre of gravity, tailing, up-ending and turning loads, and the basics of tandem lifts and when engineering approval is needed
  • ✓Special loads: long, flexible, sharp-edged and delicate items, with edge protection and sling protection, and how tight bends and sharp edges reduce sling capacity
  • ✓Detailed inspection of slings, shackles, hooks and below-the-hook devices, with removal-from-service criteria and records
  • ✓Lift communication and control: briefing the team, exclusion zones, signals and stop-work authority, then a written exam with calculations and a practical rigging scenario

Standards

  • ✓ASME B30.9 (slings)
  • ✓ASME B30.26 (rigging hardware)
  • ✓ASME B30.20 (below-the-hook lifting devices)
  • ✓Manufacturer specifications, client rigging procedures and lift-plan requirements

Documentation

  • ✓Course certificate with a unique number that can be checked through our certificate verification page
  • ✓Competency card stating the rigger level and the scheme the course was aligned to
  • ✓Written exam and practical rigging assessment records
  • ✓The candidate's assessed rigging plan and calculation sheet for their portfolio

What does a Level 2 rigger do that a Level 1 rigger does not?+

Definitions vary by client scheme, but Level 2 is commonly an advanced rigger who determines load weight and centre of gravity, selects slings and hardware and prepares rigging plans. Level 1 riggers more typically work to a plan prepared by someone else. We confirm your project's definition before aligning the course.

Do I need Level 1 before an advanced rigger course in KSA?+

Prerequisites depend on the scheme and the candidate. We expect field rigging experience and sound sling knowledge, check this at enrolment and recommend Level 1 first if the basics are not secure.
