  • By bnm Gulf bureau Saudi Arabia has successfully extracted lithium from brine samples from national giant Aramco's oilfields and plans to launch a commercial pilot programme for direct extraction soon,

Saudi Arabia has successfully extracted lithium from oilfield brine, marking a significant step towards diversifying its economy beyond oil. The country's state oil company, Aramco, in collaboration with Aramco Ventures and the King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), has developed a method to extract lithium from the brine produced during oil extraction. This initiative not only aims to reduce the environmental impact of oil production but also positions Saudi Arabia to enter the electric vehicle battery market, which heavily relies on lithium. The project has moved to a commercial pilot phase, with plans to scale up production, potentially making Saudi Arabia a key player in the global lithium supply chain. This development is part of a broader strategy to leverage the country's natural resources in new, sustainable ways.
