Saudi Aramco After IPO - Company Overview and Development Outlook

Summary

Saudi Aramco offered 1.5% of its company (equivalent to 3 billion shares out of total 200 billion share) to investors on December 10, 2019 at SAR32 (US$8.53) per share. The share price increased in the following week. Closed price on Saudi Arabia's Tadawul exchange was SAR38.00 (US$10.13) per share on December 16, 2019, resulting in market value slightly above US$2 trillion and making Aramco as the world’s most valuable company.

Saudi Aramco outperforms all other major integrated oil and gas companies on key performance indicators of production, reserves, lifting costs and net income owing to its abundant hydrocarbon reserves with majority of them laying in operationally favourable onshore and shallow water offshore locations. In 2018 the upstream segment contributed over 99% of Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT).

The Company has planned major expansions of the country’s main offshore fields that forecast to comprise about 60% of the upstream capital expenditure from 2019-22. The Company is more globally diversified in its downstream sector, investing in existing and upcoming refinery and petrochemical projects in Asia and the US in addition to expansion of its domestic capacities.
