Saudi Aramco Plans New Gas Division with Potential Future Listings
Saudi oil company Aramco plans to reorganize by creating a dedicated gas division focused on developing domestic natural gas resources and expanding its liquefied natural gas portfolio abroad. This move aligns with Gulf state oil firms' strategies to attract outside investment by listing parts of their businesses while retaining operational control. Aramco aims to raise capital through potential future listings of business units, supporting Saudi Arabia's goal to reduce reliance on oil. The company declined to comment on the plans.
