Aramco CEO Amin Nasser on the Future of Oil, AI & Saudi Vision 2030 (Extended Interview)

Saudi Aramco's strategic direction, influenced by its 2019 IPO, focuses on long-term investments in gas, liquid to chemical, and digitalization while aiming for net-zero scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2050. CEO Amin Nasser discusses how the IPO increased transparency through third-party data verification and addresses concerns about the current stock price, attributing it to market volatilities and cyclicality. Nasser emphasizes AI's transformative role in cost reduction, efficiency, and carbon footprint reduction, viewing Aramco as a technology company delivering energy. He also highlights Aramco's role in Saudi Vision 2030, balancing oil production with investments in renewables and hydrogen, advocating for a pragmatic energy transition that considers affordability, security, and the needs of the global south.
