Aramco launches Saudi Arabia’s first CO2 Direct Air Capture test unit
London, March 23, 2025, (Oilandgaspress) ––Aramco has launched the Kingdom’s first CO2 Direct Air Capture (DAC) test unit, capable of removing 12 tons of carbon dioxide per year from the atmosphere.
The pilot plant, developed in collaboration with Siemens Energy, represents a significant step in the company’s efforts to expand on its DAC capabilities. Aramco intends to use the facility as a testing platform for next-generation CO2 capture materials in Saudi Arabia’s distinct climate. It will also seek to achieve cost reductions that could help accelerate the deployment of DAC technologies in the region. Aramco and Siemens Energy intend to continue working closely together with the aim of scaling up the technology, potentially laying the foundations for large-scale DAC facilities in the future.
