Underground Utility Management
Underground detection - Our complete solutions for all your needs
- At BL Arabia are a one-stop solution for providing subsurface locates in the KSA and GCC zone. When onsite, our techs are equally capable of locating near surface conduits prior to saw cutting as they are capable of locating deeper utilities. Our Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) Techs specialise in concrete, utility, transportation, and geophysical investigations.
- Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a non-destructive testing method that generates an electromagnetic signal, which penetrates the subsurface and measures the amplitude and the travel time of the returned signal. GPR data provides high-resolution cross-sectional images of the scanned material. Antennae of different frequencies allow for varying levels of resolution and depths of investigation. The data is very versatile and applicable across many disciplines.

GPR Services
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) stands as a valuable and indispensable tool in the construction industry. Before the advent of GPR, X-Ray was the sole method for peering through concrete to discern structures like rebar, conduit, and stressed/tension cables. However, concrete X-Ray poses a significant health hazard and lacks the speed, accuracy, and efficiency of GPR.
Today, BL Arabia spearheads the GPR industry, providing expert services throughout the KSA. Our skilled technicians and conservative approach to radar, often endorsed by our equipment manufacturer, set us apart from other Ground Penetrating Radar companies. We prioritize safety, accuracy, and reliability, ensuring that our clients receive the highest quality results for their projects.
Electromagnetic Location for Utility Detection
Utility Relocation
Utility Coordination involves the identification and potential relocation of existing facilities that may conflict with proposed highway or bridge projects. Successful utility coordination hinges on early and frequent communication with utility owners, as well as collaboration and clear delineation of the project scope and schedule. Oversight of Utility Relocation activities is managed by both the District and Central Office Utility Relocation Units.
District Utility Relocation Units bear the responsibility for clearing utility facilities on all construction projects within the District and for executing the Department’s policies and procedures. Utility facilities encompass gas, water, sanitary sewers, electric, cable TV, communications, petroleum product pipelines, and other structures that directly or indirectly serve the public. Moreover, we specialize in Underground Cable Tracing, providing expertise in locating and managing underground cable networks efficiently and effectively.

Fulfill your as-built drafting needs with precision and reliability. Our expert teams are carefully curated based on professional education and industry expertise to ensure that your project is executed flawlessly from the start. We understand that each project is unique, and our dedicated team is committed to delivering as-built drawings and drafting services tailored to your specific requirements.
As-built drawings serve as the essential foundation for any architectural design project, regardless of its scale or complexity. Whether it’s residential, commercial, hospitality, high-rise, educational, or any other building type, up-to-date as-built drawings provide the architect and design team with accurate dimensions and conditions of the existing property. The CAD and REVIT files we create serve as the starting point for your design team’s work.
While some architects may handle their own as-built surveys in-house, many find it advantageous to outsource to a specialist like us. By entrusting us with the field work, architects can keep their design team focused on the creative process, while we handle the meticulous task of gathering accurate data and creating comprehensive drawings.
Our commitment to reliability, attention to detail, and swift turnaround times benefits a wide range of clients in the architecture/engineering/construction industry, including large corporations, governmental agencies, small businesses, and homeowners.
