Saudi Aramco is more than an oil company.

It is a community composed of people from more than 50 different nations working harmoniously and living together.
Life at Saudi Aramco is family-oriented. The company maintains clean, well-landscaped residential areas for employees and their families at eight locations across Saudi Arabia.
Each gated community is self-contained, with excellent schools (in Dhahran, Ras Tanura, Abqaiq and 'Udhailiyah), medical services, a security force and professional firefighters. People from different lands with different customs and styles of dress mix easily in these cosmopolitan communities.
Beach cleaning is one of several community projects performed by Saudi Aramco employees.
Saudi Aramco commits tremendous effort and resources to service the communities in which it operates, as well as Saudi Arabia as a whole.
During its long history it helped develop the Eastern Province's electrical power grid and carried out other major infrastructure projects.
The company has built nearly 135 schools serving thousands of Saudi and other resident children. In addition to its school building programme, the company has contributed to the community through numerous community programmes, including donations and fund raising events, developing health campaigns and participating in awareness campaigns on traffic and fire safety.
On the environmental front, the company closely monitors the effects of its operations on the ecological system and employs the latest environmental control technology. Its environmental consciousness has led to recycling campaigns, implementing smoke-free office environments and increasing green areas through assistance in Tree Week and mangrove planting initiatives.
Saudi Aramco also conducts environmental awareness campaigns targeting adults and children.
On a local level, Saudi Aramco is the single largest employer in the Kingdom aside from the government. The wages it pays and the goods and services it buys in the local markets help fuel the regional and national economy. The company also assists local manufacturers and vendors by using their services and purchasing their products.
Saudi Aramco has also sparked a thirst for knowledge and nurtured creativity among young people through its Kingdom-wide mobile libraries programme and annual children's art contest.
