Working in collaboration with air monitoring equipment supplier,
Envirozone LLC, Ricardo will quality assure, audit and ratify data
from a world class monitoring network in Saudi Arabia’s capital for
the Royal Commission for Riyadh City (RCRC).
Ricardo’s Air Quality and Environment Practice Director, Sean
Christiansen said: “This new contract cements Ricardo’s business in
Saudi Arabia; continuing to work with Envirozone LLC on behalf of
the Royal Commission for Riyadh City, our teams of experts will be
delivering a leading edge, sustainable solution in support of the
city’s ambitions for continued environmental improvement.”
The initial projects, which started in 2014, related to the
supply, installation and maintenance of a new 17-station monitoring
network. Ricardo Environment Arabia LLC was appointed to provide
ongoing quality assurance and quality control services for the
network, including regular monitoring equipment performance tests;
critical review of collected data; and comprehensive analysis and
reporting of the data generated.
The initial agreement was previously extended and now the new
contract will provide a further three years’ work for Ricardo.
The 17 monitoring stations, including one mobile station, each
measure up to 15 pollutant species and will generate in excess of
3.5 million hourly data points throughout the contract, all of
which will be validated using Ricardo’s powerful Modus data
processing software by the expert team. To ensure long-term
benefits are delivered by the project, beyond the life of the
agreement, a parallel comprehensive programme of knowledge transfer
and training will be provided by Ricardo Environment Arabia LLC to
the RCRC’s air quality team.
Ricardo has been at the forefront of air quality measurements
and the associated quality assurance and control of those data for
more than five decades.
Ricardo Middle East Director Akin Adamson said: “The
methodologies and procedures developed by Ricardo are recognised
internationally as best practice and have been introduced
throughout the world. We look forward to our continued significant
expansion in the Middle East region as environmental agendas
continue to advance rapidly.”
