Saudi Arabian Oil Co.’s (Saudi Aramco) expansion in refining, chemicals and marketing (downstream sector) is vital to diversify its portfolio, extract greater value and boost long-term resilience, said Mohammed Al Qahtani, Downstream President.

 

Speaking at the 2025 International Refinery & Petrochemical Technology Conference & Exhibition, organized by the Gulf Downstream Association (GDA), he said global energy demand remains strong, and Aramco’s overseas investments strengthen its role as a reliable refining and petrochemicals partner.

 

Given its growth in retail, fuels and trading, the Saudi oil giant remains confident in its ability to prosper in a more carbon-conscious world.

 

Al Qahtani emphasized the need for technological innovation and workforce development to transform the local downstream sector, while supporting energy security and cutting emissions.
