Saudi Aramco corporate report

Saudi Aramco financials report
The Saudi Arabian Oil Company stands on the brink of transformation. A longstanding leader in oil production, it now wants to become an undisputed global energy champion. Put simply, the goal is to become the world’s premier integrated oil and gas company. Saudi Aramco will need a huge expansion through the energy value chain. A mix of large-scale organic investment and M&A will bring step changes in Saudi Aramco's refining and marketing, trading, petrochemicals and global gas businesses. We look how the Saudi Arabian Oil Company could be transformed into the number one integrated energy player by 2030.
Saudi Aramco’s financials are enough to turn any CEO green with envy. We estimate upstream cash flow last year was over three times larger than Shell’s, the most cash-generative of the supermajors.
