Rigging and Lifting Gear Inspection in Jazan
Slings, shackles and hoists sit between the crane and the load, and wear, corrosion, deformation and overload damage are easy to miss by eye. Gear with no marking or no current certificate can also stop a lift at the gate. EES examines each item, rejects what fails the criteria, and returns the rest with certificates, tags and a register. Home to Jazan Economic City, including a refinery and heavy industry cluster.
Rigging & Loose Gear Inspection in Jazan: local context
Jazan sits in the Kingdom's far south-west, a long way from the Eastern Province, so cranes and heavy equipment can arrive from other regions and need an inspection record before work starts at Jazan Economic City or the Jazan Refinery. EES sends inspectors to your site in Jazan, fits visits around site access and works programmes, and issues inspection reports, certificates and inspection tags, so equipment is checked where it will work rather than moved first.

How often must slings and shackles be inspected in Saudi Arabia?＋
Users check gear before every use, and a competent person examines it periodically. Six-monthly is a common interval for lifting gear on industrial and project sites, but your client's scheme, the manufacturer and the severity of service set the actual period, and we confirm it before we start.
What is lifting gear colour-coding and which colour do I need?＋
Colour-coding is a tag or band showing that an item was examined in a given period, so crews can see at a glance that gear is current. The colour for each period and the tag format follow the client's or site's scheme, which we confirm before inspection.
