Shaybah Oil Field under Yemeni Drones Fire

By Staff

The Saudi Shaybah Oil Field was targeted by ten Yemeni drones as part of the latest operations to deter the Saudi crimes against Yemen.

Here are some important points to learn about it:

• It is a desert area located east of Saudi Arabia.
• It is some 10 kilometers away from the UAE’s Abu Dhabi border.
• It was a disputed area between Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
• It is one of the most important oil fields in Saudi Arabia.
• Its oil reserve is 16 billion barrels of crude oil and 25 trillion cubic meters of gas.
• It produces some 600,000 barrels a day, and is capable to continue with the same range for around 70 years.
• It was labeled by The Guardian as almost of same value as a gold mine rather than an oil field.
