Diesel Generators for Rent in the UAE

What to consider when renting diesel generators

A few checks before you request a quote for diesel generators in the UAE save time later:

• Have the key figures ready. For diesel generators, suppliers will ask about rated output before they can price the hire.
• Check who will run it. Diesel generators are often dry hire, so if nobody on your crew is qualified, ask the supplier whether an operator can be added.
• Settle the connection details early: cable and changeover arrangements, voltage and phase for generators, or air outlets, pressure and hose sizes for compressors.
• Confirm the minimum rental period, the daily, weekly or monthly rate, and what happens when the machine stands idle on site.
• Share the site location, access route and start date so the supplier can confirm availability for your dates.

Choosing the right diesel generator size

Diesel generators are usually specified by rated output. On Arabian Tool you can browse these classes: 60 kVA, 250 kVA, 750 kVA, 1000 kVA and 2000 kVA.

Choose by total connected load plus the starting load of your largest motor, with some headroom. kVA multiplied by the power factor (typically 0.8) gives the kW available.

Brands with their own pages: Caterpillar, Perkins, FG Wilson and Mitsubishi. A brand page helps if you need a specific make for operator familiarity or parts support.

What affects the price of renting diesel generators

Two quotes for diesel generators can differ widely for good reasons. Check these factors when you compare:

• Delivery and return: mobilisation to and from your site is often charged separately and depends on distance and machine size.
• Availability: rates can move with demand, so the same machine may be quoted differently at different times of year.
• VAT: listed rates are in SAR and exclude VAT, which is added to the final invoice where it applies.

Arabian Tool has city pages for 3 locations in the UAE, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah, so you can look up diesel generators close to your site.

Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates and the centre of its oil and gas sector, with major industrial and port zones such as KIZAD and Khalifa Port. Industrial cities, ports and project sites such as Jebel Ali Port, Jebel Ali Free Zone, Hamriyah Free Zone and Port Khalid are among the places where projects are based.

Sectors that typically use diesel generators: construction; oil and gas; logistics and ports; and industrial and power.
