In addition, Saudi Aramco, through its subsidiary Bolanter Corporation, leases crude oil storage capacity in the Caribbean to service crude markets in the United States.

Please Note: With respect to Crude Oil sales, Saudi Aramco will only respond to requests from refiners who have their own refinery and would process our crude in that system. Therefore, we exclude traders and speculators;  and with respect to Refined Petroleum Products sales, Saudi Aramco will only respond to requests from end users or principal oil trading companies that own or lease shipping, tankers or other facilities which will provide added value to Saudi Aramco, or allow entry into markets where Saudi Aramco does not have direct access.
