RACO Group: Providing Equipment and Services to the Oil and Gas Sector in Saudi Arabia

Mansour Alharbi, Chairman at RACO Group, gives an overview of the Group and its activities. RACO Group has successfully been providing equipment and services to the oil and gas sector, most importantly oil refineries and the petrochemicals industry in Saudi Arabia and the GCC region, for many years.

“We are very selective with the valve manufacturers who we are working with. We are supplying to SABIC, Sadara, Sipchem, and in Kuwait to KOC, KNPC, etc., as well as Al Khafji Joint Operation Company. Most of our oil and gas work is in the petrochemicals and in the oil refineries, not in the oil upstream which is in the crude oil. We are also doing pipe fittings with a partner that is a French company located in Italy called Fives ITAS where we work with all types of flare systems. We are also working with mechanical expansion joints with the Fives Group located in France. We are also working with Fives Nordon for the cold boxes, heat exchangers, and more. We are working also with the burners, reactors, the reformers. This type of material is where we supply the burners and we do the testing for the burners and the flare system. We are not only working in expansion joints, but we are making a complete pipe solution. In industries where they have any problem with cracks in their pipes or their expansion joints, we make a complete root cause analysis, not just for fixing the crack, but we are seeing where the problem comes from. We make a complete piping solution from the vibration, from the flow, from the temperature, from the pressure, from everything in that unit in order to find what happened exactly and then we fix it. We also have the packaging system. We do the container liners, the jumbo bags, FIBC, FFBC. We are involved with many products on the packaging side with great manufacturers from India. We have several plants in India who are cooperating with us. We look at their standard and their quality, make a sample test for them, test it to make sure it meets the standard on the requirements of our partners and our end users, then we qualify them to bring their material to Saudi Arabia“, says Mansour Alharbi.
