Aramco energizes the world economy.

Aramco occupies a unique position in the global energy industry. We are the world's largest producer of hydrocarbons (oil and gas), with the lowest upstream carbon intensity of any major producer.

With our significant investment in technology and infrastructure, we strive to maximize the value of the energy we produce for the world along with a commitment to enhance Aramco's value to society.

Headquartered in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and with offices around the world, we combine market discipline with a generations' spanning view of the future, born of our nine decades experience as responsible stewards of the Kingdom's vast hydrocarbon resources. This responsibility has driven us to deliver significant societal and economic benefits to not just the Kingdom, but also to a vast number of communities, economies, and countries that rely on the vital and reliable energy that we supply.

We are one of the most profitable companies in the world, as well as amongst the top five global companies by market capitalization.

Specifically key responsibilities are:
Conduct techno-economic studies for CO2 capture processes.
Engage in process design and process modeling activities of new technologies related to CO2 capture.
Engage in activities related to technologies scale-up, piloting and demonstration.
Liaise with peers in the company and various proponents to integrate new technologies in Saudi Aramco initiatives and ecosystem.
Train young Saudi engineers, while keeping abreast with the engineering and scientific developments of CO2 capture technologies.

Key Responsibilities

Conduct pre-feasibility and full feasibility studies for various CO2 capture processes.
Engage in process design and process modeling activities of new technologies, especially solid sorbent-based systems.
Review engineering drawings and engage with selected licensors for pilot demonstration scale.
Oversee the Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Management (EPCM) of future pilot and demonstration projects.
Provide hands-on assistance with the commissioning, operation and maintenance of pilot demonstration and pre-commercial CO2 capture units.
Liaise with peer in the company and various proponents to ensure that CO2 Direct Air Capture technology can be integrated into various Saudi Aramco initiatives as part of downstream and strategic R&D activities.
