Mechanical Systems
Rotary, hoisting, drawworks, travelling equipment and associated mechanical systems.
Al-Etimad provides specialized technical support for testing and commissioning of drilling rigs, workover rigs and associated oil & gas equipment.
Our role is to help verify that equipment, systems and interfaces perform according to approved project requirements before final client acceptance and field deployment.
Testing and commissioning is the stage where engineering, manufacturing, installation and integration are proven under controlled conditions.
Al-Etimad supports rig owners, drilling contractors, operators and OEM manufacturers by supervising, witnessing and verifying testing activities across the complete rig package.

Testing and commissioning support can cover all major rig systems according to the project scope and approved technical requirements.
Rotary, hoisting, drawworks, travelling equipment and associated mechanical systems.
Power generation, distribution, panels, instrumentation, alarms, VFDs and control interfaces.
Functional checks, pressure testing, leak checks, interlocks and system verification.
Pumps, tanks, valves, piping, circulation interfaces and operational performance.
ESD, alarms, emergency functions, safety interlocks and critical protective systems.
Air, water, HVAC, utility systems, auxiliary services and support equipment.
Inter-system checks, sequence testing, functional verification and equipment integration.
End-to-end technical support until the rig is ready for client acceptance and operation.
Review requirements, approved procedures, drawings and test plans.
Conduct or witness functional, pressure and system testing.
Compare test performance with approved acceptance criteria.
Address deficiencies, corrective actions and retesting requirements.
Confirm readiness for safe operation and final client acceptance.

Proper testing and commissioning helps reduce operational risk, identify early-life failures and confirm that equipment performs as intended before entering active operations.
Structured verification also provides clients and operators with greater confidence during final acceptance.
Testing support can be adapted to individual equipment, complete rig systems and project-specific acceptance criteria.
Factory testing helps identify issues before equipment leaves the manufacturing facility.
Pressure systems can be tested and verified before commissioning and operation.
Electrical, E&I and control systems can be verified before final operational release.
Commissioning confirms that the rig is ready to transition from installation into controlled operation. Our support can cover readiness checks, energization, system sequencing, integrated testing and final commissioning verification.
Testing is only complete when results and closure records are properly documented and traceable.
Testing and commissioning activities are performed with reference to approved project requirements, applicable specifications and relevant industry standards.
