ARO Drilling is a joint venture between Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil and gas company, and Valaris Companies, an industry-leading, global drilling contractor. This joint venture marks a major milestone towards the development of a competitive Saudi energy sector, as encapsulated in Saudi Aramco’s In-Kingdom Total Value Add (iktva) program and Saudi Vision 2030.
