2024

Low-cost operations

Our low lifting costs and capital expenditures per barrel of oil equivalent produced1 stems from the nature of the Kingdom’s geological formations, the location of our reservoirs in favorable onshore and offshore environments, and our access to a large infrastructure and logistics network, all enhanced by the scaled application of technology2.

Strategy in action

Our ever-improving Downstream integration — with a focus on a balanced product mix of fuels and chemicals, and the growing and long-term placement of Aramco’s crude oil in our Downstream operations — allows us to expand our sources of earnings, and provide resilience against oil price volatility.

Leadership in technology

Five Aramco facilities have so far been awarded Global Lighthouse Status by the World Economic Forum. As of April 2025, we are the only international energy company to be represented in the Network by more than three facilities, a recognition and clear endorsement of our world-leading implementation of 4IR technologies, deployed to deliver a range of operational and environmental benefits.

Sustainable growth

We are focused on capturing growth opportunities in our existing value chains, and through the development of our New Energies business lines.

World-scale refining and chemicals production capacity

Aramco has a dedicated system of domestic and international, wholly-owned and affiliated refineries. These, along with our petrochemcial complexes, form a growing global network that enables us to capture additional value.

Lower-carbon initiatives

Aramco aims to lower the net carbon emissions of our operations and support the global Energy Transition through development of a New Energies business. This includes renewable power generation and new lower-carbon products and solutions.

Large-scale decarbonization

Part of being a sustainable business in 2025 requires the adoption and implementation of a clear emissions reduction strategy. This is why Aramco have stated our ambition to attain Net-zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions across our wholly-owned operated assets by 2050.

Aramco continues to demonstrate our strong operational flexibility and supply reliability by delivering crude and other products in a timely manner.
