Our high-performing employees are drawn by the challenging and rewarding professional opportunities we offer, and by the opportunity to make a positive difference through their work. At Saudi Aramco, we give our people the opportunity to do the work they dreamed of doing and support them in achieving more than they thought possible.
Pioneers and innovators, scientists and engineers - dreamers and thinkers; our people are our most important asset. They drive us forward, every single hour of every single day. And because of them we lead the way in responsibly producing clean, reliable energy for the world.
Our energy to the world
We believe in the power of energy to transform lives, enhance communities, advance human progress, and sustain our planet.
With global population forecast to increase by two billion over the next 25 years, even more energy will be required to meet rising demand. It will take all available sources of energy to fill this need — both legacy and alternative sources. And while alternative energy sources are steadily making advances, they will not be capable of meeting future demand alone. Even as we transition to a low emissions future, hydrocarbon-based energy sources will be counted on to meet the bulk of the world’s energy demand well into the future.
We’re committed to driving energy efficiency and addressing the global emissions challenge. And as the world's largest integrated oil and gas company, we believe we are uniquely qualified to make effective contributions to the overall solution.
We’re a leading producer of the energy and chemicals that drive global commerce and enhance the daily lives of people around the globe.
We're explorers at heart. That drive to uncover the next frontier or solve the next great problem lies at the heart of our determination to succeed — and has allowed us to build one of the world’s most important energy and chemicals enterprises. To help ensure optimal future performance, we are focused on delivering greater value, creating additional organizational resilience, enabling continued growth, and developing future-proofing technology solutions.
From engineering mega projects to creating industry-changing technologies to launching innovative new products, we have always had a relentless drive to succeed by maximizing the long-term, positive impacts we enable from our resources.
We are a global company with over 70,000 employees. Be part of a diverse global culture, working on challenging projects with dynamic, talented people in a world-class environment.

Starting with just a small group of intrepid explorers, our history goes back more than 80 years.
Aramco traces its beginnings to 1933 when a Concession Agreement was signed between Saudi Arabia and the Standard Oil Company of California (SOCAL). The work began right away. After surveying the Saudi desert for oil, drilling began in 1935.
Following years of effort with little to show for it, in 1937 SOCAL executives sought advice from their chief geologist, Max Steineke. Drawing on years of fieldwork, Steineke told them to keep on drilling.
