POWER PLANT FIRE

PROTECTION, RABIGH

Fire protection system supplied and installed on the Rabigh 2 Mourjan IPP power generation plant expansion, delivered in 2026.

[ 01 ] THE PROJECT

THE HIGHEST HAZARD WE PROTECT

Green Flash supplied and installed the fire protection system for the Rabigh 2 Mourjan independent power producer expansion. Power generation is among the most demanding environments for fire protection: the fuel, the plant and the consequence of an outage all raise what the system has to do.

A fire package on a generation plant is judged on its hydraulics and its documentation. The design density, the area of operation and the water supply have to hold up under review, and the whole system has to satisfy Civil Defence before it is signed off.

[ 02 ] WHAT WE DELIVERED

A COMPLETE FIRE PROTECTION PACKAGE

[ 01 ]

SUPPLY AND INSTALLATION

We supplied and installed the fire protection system for the plant expansion.

[ 02 ]

ENGINEERED TO NFPA AND SBC

Hazard classification drives the design density and the area of operation. We work to NFPA and the Saudi Building Code rather than a standard detail sheet.

[ 03 ]

HYDRAULICS ON REAL CONDITIONS

Our hydraulic calculations are built on the actual water supply conditions available on site, not on an assumed figure that fails at witness testing.

[ 04 ]

THROUGH TO APPROVAL

We prepare the drawings and calculations, make the submission, answer the comments and see the system through to Civil Defence sign off.

[ 03 ] HOW WE DELIVER WORK LIKE THIS

FROM HAZARD CLASS TO WITNESSED TEST

[ 01 ]

CLASSIFY THE HAZARD FIRST

Everything downstream follows from the occupancy and hazard classification. Getting it wrong means a system that is either unsafe or unaffordable.

[ 02 ]

COORDINATE BEFORE INSTALLING

Sprinkler branches are coordinated against structure, ductwork and containment at drawing stage, on the current architectural background.

[ 03 ]

PRESSURE TEST SECTION BY SECTION

Pipework is hydrostatically tested in sections with results recorded progressively, not reconstructed at the end of the job.

[ 04 ]

PROVE IT IN FRONT OF THE AUTHORITY

Pump curves verified, flow tests witnessed, and the cause and effect matrix proven against the alarm and mechanical systems.

[ 04 ] WHY IT MATTERS

INDUSTRIAL FIRE WORK IS NOT SCALED UP OFFICE WORK

A sprinkler layout that would pass in a commercial building will not survive review on a generation plant. The hazard is different, the water supply is different, and the authority asks harder questions.

Our fire work also covers the refinery buildings in Yanbu, and we are an authorised EDWARDS fire alarm distributor, so detection and suppression can be supplied and commissioned by the same contractor.

[ 05 ] QUESTIONS

WHAT CLIENTS ASK FIRST

Do you work on power generation and heavy industrial sites?

Yes. We supplied and installed the fire protection system on the Rabigh 2 Mourjan IPP expansion, and we have delivered civil and MEP works at a refinery in Yanbu.

Do you handle the Civil Defence submission?

Yes. Drawings, hydraulic calculations, the submission itself, the comments and the follow through to approval.

Can you supply detection as well as suppression?

Yes. We are an authorised EDWARDS fire alarm distributor in the Kingdom, so both sides are supplied and commissioned in house and the interfaces are proven by one team.

Do you maintain the system afterwards?

Yes. Scheduled inspection and testing of pumps, valves and networks, with records kept in a form the authority and your insurer will accept.

TELL US WHAT THE PLANT HAS TO PROTECT

Send the layout, the hazard and the water supply you have. We will tell you what the system needs and what approval will involve.
