Fire Safety

Jensen Hughes, the global leader in safety, security and risk-based engineering and consulting, has announced plans to open its office this month in Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia

With more than 77 offices worldwide, the company aims to grow its footprint across the globe and support the Kingdom’s growth and modernisation through its safety and security expertise. Jensen Hughes has supported many public and private sector organisations for more than thirty years in the Kingdom. 

“We are excited to now have a physical presence in Kingdom through our office in Al Khobar and look forward to working closely with Saudi organisations and authorities having jurisdiction to help support the country’s Vision 2030. Our office opening couldn’t come at a better time for us to help meet our clients’ safety and security needs,” said Raj Arora, president, Strategy & Business Development, Jensen Hughes. The Kingdom’s safety, security and fire protection market is estimated at around US$6bn.

Jensen Hughes provides a wide range of fire protection and life safety services, including code consulting, process and technical safety, security, industrial fire protection, environmental consulting, and emergency management and planning services, across several key industry sectors. 

Senior leadership from the company will be present for the office opening later this month. 

“The GCC region has been adopting National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) codes and standards to minimise the effects of fire and other risks. Jensen Hughes leads and participates on many of the technical committees that develop these NFPA consensus codes which, combined with our many years of GCC experience, makes our team uniquely qualified to ensure the proper application of these codes and standards,” added Adam Olomon P.E., manager - Al Khobar, KSA, Jensen Hughes.
