 | | Saudi Arabia is keen to protect the environmental safety of the Persian Gulf and Red Sea, and the Saudi petroleum industry--led by Saudi Aramco, the state oil company--has contributed to environmental protection through safety measures, early warning systems against possible leakage, and advanced methods to control and contain any pollution. |
 | | Saudi Aramco's Environmental Conservation Policy directs that the company not create undue risks to the environment, and that operations be carried out with concern for protection of the land, air, and water. |
 | | Saudi Arabia is a signatory to the London Protocol, which calls for phasing out chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases harmful to the ozone layer by 2010, and Aramco, in keeping with the protocol on ozone-depleting substances, has been identifying its CFC-based cooling systems and converting them to alternative compounds. |
