An exceptional “reserve” that beats with the items of animals, birds and lakes

On the outskirts of the Kingdom, the desert of the Empty Quarter, which became one of the most important areas of oil, was free of life and development, until in 1998 an extraordinary leadership of this country adopted a decision to develop and develop the Shaybah field, so the state “Saudi Aramco” enabled the hands of its children to build the glory of Telid and a prosperous future for generation after generation.
A quarter of my uncle is very expensive for us.

With a confident smile and the words of formulas from the soil of this pure land, I met yesterday, young men and women of Saudi Aramco, on a church visit, and an informational smile.

Among the ambition and persistence

The project, which opened in 1999, during the reign of King Fahd bin Abdulaziz, and was launched by King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, “The Crown Prince at the time” -may God have mercy on them -a field that does not resemble the oil and gas fields, but is full of ambition and insistence on success and success, a homeland project that was built for our generations.

The first step after we got to the airport, which is not calm, as a model team arrives in everything, on planes that transport minds, planning over 7 consecutive days, for this exceptional spot of the world.

The tones of the voice of our youth and our young women there were confident and insisting on completing success. They transformed the tall sand dunes into various development projects between energy, electricity, environmental preservation and youth development. We have not seen only, black gold sites in a sprawling desert, but we found citizens of gold in large projects the size of the country.

The sprawling sands were adapted to development, and huge spaces were in a deep slumber, which was revived to the giant project, continuing its leaps from “success to success”.

Laboratory No. 2

I saw stories telling about the laboratory of “2” that factory, which was photographed in the chest of our paper “5 riyals”, Saudis reaching 98% of the success of the success team, Saudis we are proud that we were born from Bedouins and attended, and we agreed on Saudi Arabia with its components, outskirts and regions.

These Saudis were not born in the day and night engineers in the same various specializations, which took years, sponsored by the Kingdom and followed by a Saudi national company, “Aramco” with which a generation and generations grew up with generations.

“It is an auction”, it was created typical in everything, with its sands, animal varieties, birds and lifestyle, which is vibrant for life.

Aramco was not as much as a national company pumped into the sands of our country gold, not only black gold, but went from the minds and arms of the country and its sons, there are hundreds of kilometers away from generations, and history will memorize an exceptional success story in an exceptional homeland.

The story is not over .. and for the rest of the hadith ..
