Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) & Trenchless Technology

United Al-Araz provides advanced Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) services, offering a smarter, faster, and non-invasive way to install underground utilities. With the Kingdom’s rapid urban expansion under Vision 2030, our trenchless solutions allow for the seamless installation of infrastructure without the need for traditional, disruptive open-cut trenching.

From telecommunications and fiber optics to high-pressure water and gas lines, we deliver precision drilling in the most challenging terrains.

Our HDD Capabilities

  • Infrastructure Under-Crossing: Installing utilities beneath existing highways, Saudi Railway tracks, and airport runways without stopping traffic or flight operations.

  • Fiber Optic & Telecommunications: High-speed deployment of conduits for 5G networks and smart city connectivity.

  • Water & Sewage Networks: Precision drilling for HDPE and steel pipes, ensuring accurate gradients for gravity-fed systems.

  • Power Cable Installation: Creating safe, underground corridors for high-voltage power lines in congested urban areas like Riyadh and Jeddah.

Technical Excellence & Equipment

  • Precision Guidance Systems: We utilize state-of-the-art tracking and “walk-over” locating systems to ensure the drill path avoids existing underground utilities with centimeter-level accuracy.

  • Environmental Protection: HDD significantly reduces surface disruption, preserves landscaping, and minimizes the carbon footprint of the construction site.

  • Hard Rock Drilling: Specialized mud motors and rock bits designed to penetrate the tough geological formations found across the Saudi landscape.
