Jeddah Refinery
Jeddah Refinery is a crude oil refinery located in southern Jeddah in Makkah Region, Saudi Arabia. It was established in 1952 by ARAMCO, and it covers 180 ha with refining facilities, tanks, and a lubricants zone. Post-1985, the refinery downsized, aligning with sector changes and the development of a new industrial zone and terminal in Yanbu. It was recently decommissioned and partially converted into an industrial area.
