Four major Saudi energy companies have signed a series of agreements with the Syrian Petroleum Company aimed at strengthening field development, expanding technical services, and enhancing overall production capabilities across Syria’s oil and gas sector.
According to a news report by Zawya, the deals were finalised under the supervision of Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Energy and build on the memoranda of understanding signed on 28 August 2025, followed by joint technical workshops and site visits.
The deals include:
ADES Holding has agreed a framework that outlines the core principles for a future technical services contract covering the development, operation, and production of several key gas fields.
These include Abu Rabah, Qamqam, North Al-Faydh, Al-Tiyas and Zumlat al-Mahar, with the possibility of expanding the scope to additional areas later. The focus is on raising production while upgrading onsite infrastructure.
TAQA has signed a master service agreement to deliver integrated construction, maintenance and field services using advanced technologies to improve operational efficiency and boost output across Syrian oil and gas assets.
ARGAS will support enhanced exploration activities through 2D and 3D seismic surveying and associated technical services. The agreement sets a long-term framework for accelerating exploration work, improving subsurface imaging, and enabling faster execution of new technical programmes.
Arabian Drilling has entered into an agreement to provide drilling and workover services, supplying onshore rigs, managing operations, and delivering workforce training and development. The partnership aims to strengthen drilling capacity and support Syria’s efforts to revitalise its upstream sector.
Collectively, the agreements represent a significant expansion of Saudi–Syrian cooperation, reinforcing Saudi Arabia’s role in supporting Syria’s energy infrastructure recovery and future production growth.
