Saudi Arabia hosts the region’s premier no-dig infrastructure forum this November.
The forthcoming Trenchless Middle East 2025 scheduled for 11-12 November 2025 at the Jeddah Hilton in Jeddah marks a pivotal moment for underground infrastructure in the Gulf. Organized by Westrade Group Ltd, this 14th edition of the event ushers the long-running platform into the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, a terrain of fast-moving infrastructure expansion under the banner of Saudi Vision 2030.
Why is the shift to Jeddah significant? With mega-projects such as NEOM and King Abdullah Economic City driving rapid growth alongside expanding wastewater, sewerage and utility networks across dense urban zones, the adoption of trenchless (or no-dig) techniques is increasingly critical.
At its core, Trenchless Middle East brings together engineers, contractors, utility owners, consultants, equipment manufacturers and technology providers under one roof. An exhibition floor will host live demonstrations of trenchless equipment and tooling, including CIPP, HDD, micro-tunnelling, pipe inspection/rehabilitation and smart utility mapping solutions.
In parallel, the free-to-attend technical conference offers a rich agenda of papers, case studies and thought-leadership sessions. The event is backed by the International Society for Trenchless Technology (ISTT) and the Association of Trenchless Technologies Middle East (ATTME), ensuring rigor and relevance for the sector.
For industry stakeholders in Saudi Arabia and the broader Middle East, this is more than a trade show. It’s a strategic platform to explore how trenchless technology can enable cost-efficient, low-disruption infrastructure delivery. With cities under pressure from growing populations and urban expansion, no-dig methods promise both operational resilience and minimal impact on surface-level activities.
In short, whether you represent a government utility, an EPC contractor, a specialist technology supplier or an engineering consultant, Trenchless Middle East 2025 is an essential destination for pipeline, sewerage, drainage, stormwater and utility projects. With regional transformation accelerating, the tools and methods discussed here will help shape how underground infrastructure is built and maintained for decades.
