PRODUCTION & REFINERIES


GAS PRODUCTION

FADHILI

MORE INFO


FADHILI

We commenced construction of our Fadhili Gas Plant, located 30 km west of Jubail
Industrial City, in late 2016. The facility is emblematic of our broader impact
on not only increasing supplies of gas, but also driving economic growth,
developing the Saudi workforce, and reducing emissions.

Designed to process up to 2.5 billion scfd of raw gas, Fadhili will be our first
plant to treat nonassociated gas from both onshore and offshore fields, with
start up planned in 2019.

The plant was designed from inception to use the Tail Gas Treatment process to
reach the maximum sulfur recovery rate of 99.9%, helping protect air quality.

The project’s value extends well beyond the resources it will process: the
development of Fadhili will add billions of dollars to the local economy, with
an expectation that 40% of the plant’s materials and services to be sourced and
manufactured in Saudi Arabia.

When completed, Fadhili Gas Plant will become a key component of the Kingdom’s
Master Gas System.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HAWIYAH

MORE INFO


HAWIYAH

We are expanding the gas processing capacity of our Hawiyah gas plant by more
than 1 billion scfd. The new gas processing facilities, expected to be on stream
in 2021, are anticipated to raise total production capacity of the plant to
approximately 3.6 billion scfd, making it one of the largest gas processing
facilities in the world.

We are making improvements to sustain gas production from both the Haradh and
Hawiyah fields for the next 20 years and boost production by an average of 1.2
scfd. The program includes installing gas compression facilities, liquid
separation stations, and transmission lines to our Haradh and Hawiyah gas
plants, along with expanding the existing gas gathering pipeline network. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

KARAN

MORE INFO


KARAN

Karan, was our first non-associated offshore gas field development. Discovered
in 2006 in the thickest, extremely prolific and complex carbonate layers, the
project was fast-tracked, taking only six years to go from discovery to
production.

Non-associated gas fields do not have an associated oil column and, therefore,
can be accessed without producing oil. The raw gas is transported through a
110-kilometer subsea pipeline to the Khursaniyah Gas Plant for processing. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MIDYAN

MORE INFO


GAS PLANT IN MIDYAN

Located in the Tabuk region, Saudi Aramco's first such project in the Kingdom’s
northwest. The Midyan field, discovered in the early 1990s during Red Sea
coastal plain exploration, was studied to identify ways to optimize economic
production.

In 2017, we enabled production from our Midyan nonassociated gas field in
northwestern Saudi Arabia. The facilities in the field are designed to produce
75 million scfd of sales gas and 4.5 thousand bpd of condensate. The produced
gas will be used to displace liquid fuels for power generation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SHAYBAH

MORE INFO


SHAYBAH

The natural gas liquids (NGL) recovery plant at Shaybah was commissioned and
began production in late 2015, with a second processing train starting up in
2016. The plant will help us meet increasing demand for petrochemical feedstock
by recovering valuable NGL from produced gas.

Designed to process as much as 2.4 billion scfd of associated gas and recover
275,000 bpd of ethane plus NGL, the Shaybah facility will feed these new volumes
of NGL via pipeline to Ju’aymah for further processing before being delivered as
petrochemical feedstock to industrial cities.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WASIT

MORE INFO


WASIT

Wasit, one of the largest gas plants we have ever built, was brought onstream in
October 2015 and reached full operating capacity in mid-2016. Unlike our other
gas plants, Wasit is designed to process solely nonassociated gas. 

To feed Wasit, we brought gas production onstream from the big bore
nonassociated gas wells in our offshore Arabiyah and Hasbah fields, situated
approximately 150 km northeast of Jubail Industrial City in the Arabian Gulf.
With the startup of production from these two fields, more than 40% of our
nonassociated gas now comes from offshore fields.

Our continued success in increasing supplies of cleaner burning natural gas
makes it possible for us to reduce emissions, enable new industries and release
more crude oil for value-added refining or export.

OIL PRODUCTION & REFINERIES

ABQAIQ

MORE INFO


ABQAIQ

As the company's largest oil processing facility and the largest crude oil
stabilization plant in the world, Abqaiq plays a pivotal role in our day-to-day
operations.

Abqaiq oil facilities receive sour crude oil from gas-oil separation plants
(GOSPs), process it into sweet crude oil, and then transport it to Ras Tanura
and Jubail on the east coast, Yanbu' on the west coast and to Bapco Refinery in
Bahrain. The off gases from the spheroids and stabilizer columns that are part
of the conversion process are then sent to Abqaiq natural gas liquids (NGL)
facilities for further processing.

Abqaiq is the main oil processing center for Arabian Extra Light and Arabian
Light crude oils.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GHAWAR

MORE INFO


GHAWAR

The northern-most portion of the Ghawar field lies approximately 100 kilometers
west of Dhahran. The field comprises six main areas (Fazran, Ain Dar, Shedgum,
Uthaminyah, Hawiyah and Haradh) and extends southward over more than 200
kilometers as one long continuous anticline. It is approximately 36 kilometers
across at its widest point.

We believe that the Ghawar field is the largest oil field in the world in terms
of conventional proved reserves, totaling 58.32 billion barrels of oil
equivalent as at 31 December 2018. It has accounted for more than half of the
total cumulative crude oil production in the Kingdom.

The Ghawar field facilities and infrastructure remain a central component in our
long-term strategic framework for optimizing both technical recovery of
resources and the economic of resource management. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HARADH

MORE INFO


HARADH

The Haradh area, located at the southern tip of the Ghawar oil field, was
developed in three increments of 300,000 bpd of Arabian Light crude oil
capacity.

Haradh III was also the first plant in the Southern Area of company operations
to have completely automated well control and monitoring, allowing remote
operations. The project benefited from successful integration of four
technologies: multilateral, maximum reservoir contact (MRC) wells; Smart Well
completions (using control valves for preventing premature water breakthrough);
geosteering (for optimal placement of wells in the reservoir for maximum
recovery); and the “intelligent field” concept, in which real-time sub-surface
data transmissions enable continual monitoring of key reservoir indicators. The
integrated use of these four technologies slashed unit well development costs
three-fold.

KHURAIS

MORE INFO


KHURAIS

The Khurais complex, which comprises of the Abu Jifan and Mazalij fields in
addition to Khurais itself, is approximately 106 kilometers long and 18
kilometers across at its widest point.

As of 31 December 2018, proved reserves at Khurais were 21.40 billion barrels of
oil equivalent, including 20.10 billion barrels of liquid reserves. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

KHURSANIYAH

MORE INFO


KHURSANIYAH

The Khursaniyah program includes facilities to process and stabilize 500,000 bpd
of Arabian Light crude oil blend from the Abu Hadriya, Fadhili and Khursaniyah
fields, and a grassroots gas plant to process one billion scfd of associated
gas.

Khursaniyah began producing oil in August 2008. The facility also has the
capacity to inject 1.1 million bpd of non-potable water for reservoir pressure
maintenance.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MANIFA

MORE INFO


MANIFA

The UNESCO environmental responsibility award nominated Manifa crude oil
development was designed to produce 900,000 bpd of Arabian Heavy crude oil, 90
million scfd of sour gas, and 65,000 bpd of hydrocarbon condensate.

By employing best-in-class technologies in infrastructure, drilling and
production activities, the project consumed more than 80 million man hours
without a lost time injury.

Prior to construction, extensive engineering and ecological assessments were
conducted to ensure that the marine ecosystem would not be adversely affected by
developing the field. As a direct result of these studies, Saudi Aramco
constructed three kilometers of bridges to span the migration paths of various
marine species, maintaining natural water flow and preserving natural marine
nurseries.

NUAYYIM

MORE INFO


NUAYYIM

Nuayyim crude oil increment added 100,000 bpd of Arabian Super Light crude oil
and 90 million scfd of associated gas to our production capacity.

The project – the first in-Kingdom project of this scale with a project proposal
completed entirely in Saudi Arabia – also included a gas-oil separation plant,
140 kilometers of 16” gas pipeline, and water supply facilities at Hawtah.
Smokeless flaring has been used to significantly reduce emissions. 

The field, which entered production in August 2009, is 250 kilometers south of
Riyadh and about 50 kilometers northeast of our Hawtah crude oil facility, the
first producing facility in the Central Region of Saudi Arabia.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

QATIF

MORE INFO


QATIF

Qatif Producing Plants Program consists of facilities to produce, process, and
transport 500,000 bpd of blended Arabian Light crude oil from the Qatif field
and 300,000 bpd of Arabian Medium crude oil from the offshore Abu Sa'fah field.

The Qatif facility was the first to produce Arabian Light crude oil by blending
Arabian Extra Light, Light and Medium grades.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SAFANIYAH

MORE INFO


SAFANIYAH

We believe that Safaniyah field is the world's largest conventional offshore oil
field in terms of roved reserves. It is located approximately 260 kilometers
north of Dhahran. Most of the field lies offshore in the Arabian Gulf. Within
the Concession area, the Safaniyah field is approximately 50 kilometers long and
15 kilometers wide. 

As of December 2018, the proved reserves were 34.03 billion barrels of oil
equivalent. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SHAYBAH

MORE INFO


SHAYBAH

The Shaybah field, located in the Rub’ al-Khali or Empty Quarter, was discovered
in 1968. Its remote location, local summer temperatures in excess of 50 degrees
Celsius and sand dunes higher than 300 meters presented serious challenges. So
for technical and economic reasons, development was held off until 20 years
later. However, by the 1990s, advances in 3D seismic imaging technology,
horizontal drilling and other technologies gave us the tools we needed to begin
production. 

The field is approximately 13 kilometers wide and 64 kilometers long. Due to the
field's remoteness, its facilities include a dedicated NGL recovery unit, an
airfield and accommodation for staff. 

Our second 250,000 bpd expansion project at Shaybah came on-stream in 2016,
raising its overall production capacity to 1 million bpd of Arabian Extra Light
crude oil — double the facility’s original capacity.  As of December 2018,
proved reserves were 14.86 billion barrels of oil equivalent. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ZULUF

MORE INFO


ZULUF

The Zuluf field is located in the Arabian Gulf, approximately 240 kilometers
north of Dhahran, in average water depth of 118 feet. The field has two main
structures, Zuluf and Ribyan, and is of similar area to Safaniyah to the north. 

As of December 2018, Zuluf had proved reserves of 31.31 billion barrels of oil
equivalent.

Saudi Aramco and Raytheon Company, through its subsidiary Raytheon Saudi Arabia,
signed a Memorandum of Understanding to establish a joint venture  company that
will develop and provide best-in-class cybersecurity services in Saudi Arabia
and the  region.



The joint venture company will market and provide integrated defensive

The JV will increase the cybersecurity protections available to Saudi Aramco,
its suppliers, customers and affiliates. It will also help build world-class
cyber capabilities in Saudi Arabia and the region.

“We are excited about the joint venture which will support the Kingdom’s Vision
2030 by creating highly skilled jobs for Saudis in the cybersecurity sector and
will support the foundation for Saudi Arabia’s economic development,” said Saudi
Aramco Senior Vice President of Finance, Strategy & Development Khalid H.
Al-Dabbagh.

He added, “Demand for cybersecurity services is expected to grow as companies
move further into the digital space and embrace technologies such as Internet of
Things and big data. The partnership with Raytheon will help strengthen
cybersecurity and enhance its infrastructure in Saudi Arabia and the broader
region.”

“Cybersecurity is critical to national and global security,” said Dave Wajsgras,
President of Raytheon Intelligence, Information and Services. “This MOU is an
important step in creating a joint venture that we see becoming the cornerstone
of cybersecurity defenses in the region.”
