With our significant investment in technology and infrastructure, we strive to maximize the value of the energy we produce for the world along with a commitment to enhance Aramco’s value to society.

Headquartered in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and with offices around the world, we combine market discipline with a generations’ spanning view of the future, born of our nine decades experience as responsible stewards of the Kingdom’s vast hydrocarbon resources. This responsibility has driven us to deliver significant societal and economic benefits to not just the Kingdom, but also to a vast number of communities, economies, and countries that rely on the vital and reliable energy that we supply.

We are one of the most profitable companies in the world, as well as amongst the top five global companies by market capitalization.

  • Identify new laboratory requirements and detailed specifications of the equipment, tools and materials needed to expand current capabilities.
  • Work as part of multi-disciplinary team, providing advice on laboratory experimental techniques, materials selection, and damage mechanisms that might reflect in the Company Engineering Standards, Best Practices, or Analytical methods.
  • Establish and manage collaborations with key internal and external stakeholders in order to accelerate the achievement of goals and maximize the impact of the research programs.
  • Contribute to RA&SD’s intellectual capital by submitting journal publications, patents, and technical reports.

  • As the successful candidate you will hold a Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering.
  • You will have a minimum of 15 years’ experience in oil and gas related to advanced materials.
  • You must have a proven track record of work experience in research or industrial environments in carrying out original advanced materials studies, developing and deploying new techniques and technologies.
  • You should be able to demonstrate a strong knowledge and hands-on experience in materials science with particular emphasis on emerging and sustainable materials, carbon-based materials, and nanotechnology related to materials sustainability, and corrosion control and mitigation in oil and gas industry. 
  • You must be able to demonstrate knowledge on syntheses, properties, and applications of advanced materials in corrosion control and mitigation in oil and gas industry.
  • Contributions to the scientific domain, as demonstrated by publishing journal papers, patents, and active membership in professional societies are preferred.
