These case studies highlight how GeoSitter's monitoring instruments, data management software and hydraulic jacks for pile load test excel in a number of projects.
Project Name: NEOM Highway 55 Infrastructure Upgrade
Location: NEOM, Saudi Arabia (Red Sea Coastal Region)
Start Date: January, 2025
Testing Scope: BDSLT (Bi-directional Static Load Test)
Number of Piles: 4 test piles (more work pile to follow )
Pile Diameters: From 1m (3.3ft) to 1.5m (4.9ft)
Ougan's Role: Supply and deployment of Super Cell technology for BDSLT; Load-bearing capacity assessment for deep foundation piles; On-site field supervision and technical support
As a key part of Saudi Arabia’s $500 billion NEOM mega-project, the Highway 55 Upgrade is shaping the future of smart and sustainable transportation. NEOM, a revolutionary vision under Saudi Vision 2030, is redefining urban development with 100% renewable energy, AI-driven automation, and cutting-edge infrastructure. Highway 55, a crucial 116 km corridor along the Red Sea, is being upgraded to meet the demands of this next-generation metropolis, incorporating 13 advanced interchanges (INT 01 – INT 13), new bridges, culverts, and widened roads to support NEOM’s high-tech, carbon-neutral future.
Ougan is honored to contribute our industry-leading foundation testing expertise to this visionary project. Our Super Cell technology is deployed for Bi-directional Static Load Testing (BDSLT) on deep foundation piles, ensuring unparalleled accuracy in load-bearing assessments. This testing is critical to the structural integrity and long-term performance of Highway 55's new infrastructure, supporting the seamless integration of NEOM’s autonomous transportation networks.
With years of global experience in geotechnical testing, Ougan delivers high-efficiency, precision-driven solutions for large-scale, high-profile projects like NEOM. As Saudi Arabia builds the world’s most advanced urban ecosystem, Ougan remains a trusted partner in engineering excellence, ensuring that the foundations of this groundbreaking smart city stand strong for generations to come. You will trust us as an honored geotechnical instrumentation company.
