ARAMCO INFO NEEDED
Guest
Posts: n/a
ARabian AMerican oil CO
They are based on the East (Gulf) coast of Saudi. Now entirely Saudi-owned I believe, but used to be (still may be) one of the highest payers in these parts (that's in general, not specifically for aircrew)
I'm not sure but I think they operate mainly "biz-jet" equipment out of Dahran or their own fields.
Accomodation is likely to be in their own "mini-city" at Dahran which, in the days of American joint-ownership, used to be a "place apart" in Saudi (women driving, pig in the shops etc) but has gotten rather more Saudi-ised nowadays. Always used to be regarded as one of the best places to be for an Expat in Saudi. Due to their being the source of most of the country's income, they do not usualy suffer from the chronic "cash shortages" that have been a problem in the country at times.
Any Saudi-Aramco pilots out there reading who can give more specific info?

Flight Sims, very expensive toys - but real fun to play with!

Mutt,
Not sure, something may be cooking for July.
Last plane (not you know who's) was in such bad shape maint wise I think they're parting it out.
I heard the ultimatum has been laid down to you know who re: you know what, and the US Embassy in you know where (the Sr. Communications Director, to be exact)will handle the situation next week if you know what doesn't electroniclly go you know where by next Friday.
By the way, I have applied to ARAMCO. They apparently are looking for all sorts of fixed wing and rotary drivers. Is it for real, or are they just building a database?
Hope to see you soon.

DI3G,
You need to send me a code book for that message!
I really dont know about Aramco, they are advertising a lot, but dont appear to be increasing their fleet? Anyone else know whats going on in DHA?
If you are really interested in coming back this way, I would suggest applying to Netjets or MidEast Jets. MEJ are supposed to be getting a number of BBJ's.
All the best.

Lots of Aramco ads on the net these days, but I'm not sure if there are actually any new jobs!
It appears that the present crewing company have lost the contract, a couple of new companies are bidding for the replacement contract, hence the advertisements. I'm not sure if the present incumbents of the jobs will just remain with the new company.
Rgds.
