Saudi Aramco Mobil Refinery Company Ltd. (SAMREF) operates one of the most sophisticated and highly complex export refineries in the Middle East, located in Yanbu Industrial City on Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coast. The refinery commenced operations on November 15, 1984, with an initial design capacity of 263,000 bpd of Arabian Light crude oil, and has since expanded its throughput to more than 400,000 bpd — an increase of over 52% above original design — through continuous facility upgrades and process optimization.
