AND INSPECTOR GENERAL
Chairman's
Message
This inaugural Review comes at an important
time for Saudi Aramco and for Saudi Arabia. By
completing the largest capital program in its
history and raising the maximum sustainable
crude oil production capacity to 12 million
barrels per day – the highest in its history –
the Company has set a new standard for the
petroleum industry. The start of production at the
Petro Rabigh venture marks another significant
achievement: It is the first step for the Company
in the petrochemical industry and a landmark for
diversifying our economy and creating new jobs
in the Kingdom.
These are internationally important
achievements, but the Company believes that
even the most successful organizations can
achieve much more through teams that focus
and multiply the members’ various strengths.
Many of Saudi Aramco’s successes have been
through strategic collaborations and work with
businesses, government and other stakeholders.
Saudi Aramco has a proud legacy of
collaboration and corporate citizenship. The spirit
of responsible and sustainable business has
existed within Saudi Aramco since its founding
in 1933. Even then, at the signing of the initial
exploration concession with Standard Oil of
The year 2009 marks another milestone
in the history of Saudi Aramco: the
publication of the first-ever Saudi
Aramco Corporate Citizenship Review.
California, King ‘Abd al-‘Aziz Al Sa‘ud ensured
that the agreement contained provisions for
ongoing education and transfer of skills to the
local Saudi work force.
More than three-quarters of a century later, the
Saudi economy continues to prosper, thanks
to the leading role that businesses such as
Saudi Aramco have played in the Kingdom’s
development. To grow further, we will need
to increase our shared efforts to deepen
knowledge, nurture innovation, diversify the
economy, create employment opportunities and
promote environmental protection.
The 2009 Corporate Citizenship Review
highlights many of the exciting and innovative
ways that Saudi Aramco is contributing to a
prosperous society.
I hope you enjoy reading this landmark
publication, and I invite you to join me in
applauding both the successes in this report and
the values behind Saudi Aramco’s Corporate
Citizenship Vision: “To be an influential leader
in creating sustainable social and economic
opportunities for the welfare of the Kingdom
and in other locations where we do business.”
Ali I. Al-Naimi
Minister of Petroleum & Mineral Resources,
and Chairman of the Board of Directors

essential as we move into a new era for our
citizenship activities.
Our citizenship strategy is built on four key
pillars, each one aligned with our core business
expertise and the Kingdom’s strategic priorities.
Our priorities are economic development and
diversification, community building, knowledge
creation and environmental protection. Already
we have launched transformative programs such
as our Traffic Safety Signature Program, which
builds stakeholder capacity and promotes safety
on our roads, and our new landmark initiative,
the Youth Talent Development Signature
Program, which aims to fortify youth with
character development and enhanced critical
thinking skills.
Saudi Aramco has been, and will continue
to be, a leading corporate citizen. This first
Corporate Citizenship Review is a landmark
that demonstrates our commitment to our
employees, our communities and other
stakeholders, and it demonstrates how we will
continue to deliver energy to the world in a safe,
reliable and responsible way.
Khalid A. Al-Falih
President and Chief Executive Officer,
Saudi Aramco
At Saudi Aramco, corporate citizenship has
always been a core value that influences all that
we do. Corporate citizenship is not only writing
checks to worthy charitable or educational
institutions. Being a strong corporate citizen
means that our values are encoded into the way
we operate and innovate.
Throughout our history, Saudi Aramco’s legacy
has been synonymous with creating local jobs,
enabling educational attainment, promoting
environmental protection and supporting the
social fabric of the Kingdom. Our track record
has been one of leading and collaborating with
organizations to achieve results that benefit our
company and society as a whole.
Integral to our achievements has been the
ability to create strategic relationships. Teaming
allows us to work across our businesses with
suppliers, contractors, academic institutions
and other stakeholders in effective project
teams. It has also enabled Saudi Aramco to
maintain its global leadership, and it will be

Foreword
I am pleased to introduce Saudi
Aramco’s first Corporate Citizenship
Review. It is a new chapter in our
history and comes at a time when
we begin to execute a new strategy

Saudi Aramco is a reliable supplier of
petroleum energy to the world. Owned by the
Government of Saudi Arabia, Saudi Aramco is
a fully integrated, global enterprise managing
260 billion barrels of proven oil reserves, more
than 275 trillion cubic feet of gas reserves,
and major refining and petrochemical assets.
We are committed to providing a dependable
supply of energy to the Kingdom and to the
international community.
In 2009, Saudi Aramco completed significant
work on a multi-year, multiple mega-project
program that included new or expanded oil,
gas and petrochemical facilities. Maximum
sustainable crude oil production capacity
was raised to 12 million barrels per day,
and significant increases were achieved in
gas production and processing capacities. In
addition, key support facilities such as water
injection and distribution networks were also
expanded or upgraded.
Saudi Aramco provides a safe environment for
its employees. Last year, for example, there were
zero on-the-job fatalities among our employees,
and over 1 million work-hours were completed
at Jiddah, Riyadh and Yanbu' refineries without
an occupational injury or illness involving days
away from work.
Our excellent safety record and business success
enable us to attract and retain an excellent work
force. We employ 55,066 men and women,
87 percent of whom are Saudi nationals. Our
headquarters is located in Dhahran, but we also
have connections to a network of affiliate and
subsidiary offices in China, Japan, India, the
Netherlands, the Republic of Korea, Singapore,
the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom
and the United States. Collaborating in this
manner enables us to meet domestic and
international demands and to ensure global
energy needs are met for generations to come.
We provide a safe working environment for our 55,066 employees, many of whom are based at our headquarters
in Dhahran.
Khurais, the largest oil increment program in our history, opened in July 2009 and enabled Saudi Aramco to
raise its maximum sustainable oil production capacity.

track record of success in building infrastructure,
promoting environmental awareness,
volunteering in the community and enabling
children to access better and more diverse
educational opportunities.
Our corporate citizenship activities benefit
communities throughout the Kingdom of Saudi
Arabia and guide the work of our affiliates
around the world. In each country, our projects
aim to promote good practices and to align
with key societal needs, whether it is natural-
disaster relief work in Japan or providing world-
class educational programs and facilities across
Saudi Arabia.
This review demonstrates our role in
supporting economic, social and environmental
development in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
and beyond. It illustrates our current activities
and our historical contributions, and describes
our plans for the future.
As a leading corporate citizen, Saudi Aramco
has actively promoted social and economic
development since its inception in 1933. Our
corporate citizenship values underpin the way
we do business, from the way we manage
our oil reservoirs for the maximum long-term
benefit of the Kingdom, to the way we treat
our workers, engage contractors in meaningful
training, promote environmental protection and
volunteer in local communities across
the Kingdom.
Over the past year, leaders within the Company
have worked to articulate this passion in a
Corporate Citizenship Vision. Our goal is to
be “an influential leader in creating social
and economic opportunities for the welfare
of the Kingdom and in other locations where
our affiliates do business.” This Citizenship
Vision will guide us in the future development
and delivery of world-class activities and
programs for our employees, our youth and our
communities.
Implementing this vision will require us to forge
and maintain strong collaborations. Teaming
with local communities and Government
agencies to achieve shared goals is core to
Saudi Aramco's approach. We have a strong

Industrial Era (1970s – 2000) Knowledge Era (2000 – present)
Both corporate citizenship and the ability to
team with strategic stakeholders have been
integral to the continued growth of Saudi
Aramco. Since 1933, when Saudi Arabia granted
the Company an oil exploration concession,
our success has helped spread prosperity and
innovation throughout the Kingdom.
From its early days, Aramco worked hard
to provide for its work force and for local
communities. Since then, our activities have
continued to shape our communities and
transform the nation into a leading global
economy.
In the first main period from 1933-1970,
referred to as the Infrastructure Era, Aramco
helped build the foundations of a strong
economy: basic infrastructure (such as roads
and utilities), local facilities (such as schools and
hospitals), and secure access to provisions (such
as healthy food and reliable sources of water).
Setting these basic elements in place was
essential to making our communities flourish
and our business succeed.
Alongside broader infrastructure investments
such as the railway from Dammam to Riyadh,

and local businesses.
the Company laid the foundations for long-term
success. Creating a high-performing, healthy and
capable work force was imperative. The Home
Ownership Program, which now has provided
loans to over 58,000 employees, enabled Saudi
workers to raise their living standards and own
homes for the first time, and supported the
development of major communities such as
al-Khobar, Dammam and Yanbu‘. Saudi Aramco

also began a major company-wide training
program to provide skills for employees to
develop and grow in their professional careers.
During this era, Aramco also launched its first
major awareness campaign on public health. In
1943, Aramco initiated a campaign to reduce
malaria in the Eastern Province. It saw Company
employees raise awareness in the local community,

food supply.
and local waterways were stocked with Gambusia
fish that thrive on mosquito larvae. By 1956, when
the Government took control of the program, the
malaria problem was nearly eradicated.
Another successful effort to improve health was
launched in 1954. In association with Harvard
University’s School of Public Health, Aramco
began funding a research effort to vaccinate
against trachoma, bacteria that affected the
eyesight of 80–85 percent of Saudis at the time.
This initiative, together with improvements in
hygiene and increased awareness, significantly
reduced the number of trachoma cases in the
local population and helped to improve working
conditions for Aramco personnel.
A second period, referred to as the Industrial
Era, began in the 1970s in conjunction with
the introduction of the Kingdom's first five-
year development plan. During this era, the
national economy began to diversify, with major
industries opening up across the Kingdom,
including the new industrial cities of Yanbu'
and Jubail.
At the same time, Aramco played a major role
in two vital industrial projects, establishing
the Master Gas System and an electricity
distribution network. The Master Gas System
captured immense quantities of associated
gas during the oil extraction process and
converted this gas into a valuable commodity
that could be used to generate power and as
a petrochemical feedstock. This new energy
source helped run
