Abqaiq

Overview

Saudi Arabia (Eastern Province). Saudi Aramco. Onshore oil field discovered in 1940, one of the oldest in the kingdom. Estimates from the early 2010s put its output near 400,000 bpd; no current figure is available. The Abqaiq processing plant beside it is a separate facility with its own entry.

Geopolitical context

Better known for the processing plant that shares its name, which stabilises most Eastern Province crude and was the target of the September 2019 attack and of drone strikes in July 2026. The field itself is a small part of Saudi output.
