The Jafurah Gas Field is a massive discovery for Saudi Arabia, holding the title of the largest liquid-rich shale gas field in the entire Middle East. This isn't just about vast gas reserves; Jafurah is seen as a key player in Saudi Arabia's transition towards a lower-carbon future. Here's why Jafurah is so significant: Liquid-rich gas: Jafurah doesn't just hold natural gas, it also contains valuable natural gas liquids (NGLs) and condensates. These can be used as feedstock for cleaner burning fuels and various industrial processes. Reduced Emissions: Compared to traditional oil, natural gas burns cleaner when used for power generation. Jafurah's development could contribute to a reduction in overall greenhouse gas emissions in Saudi Arabia. Long-term Potential: With an estimated 200 trillion standard cubic feet of gas, Jafurah offers Saudi Arabia a secure and reliable source of energy for decades to come. While natural gas isn't a perfect solution, Jafurah represents a significant step for Saudi Arabia's energy diversification and its journey towards a lower-carbon future. .#aramco
