Aramco 'has discovered two unconventional oil fields, one Arabian light oil reservoir, two natural gas fields, and two natural gas reservoirs in the Eastern Province and the Empty Quarter,' he added.
Saudi Arabia is the world's largest crude oil exporter and leader of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).
Aramco's oil production hit 500,000 barrels per day (bpd) in 1949, and the company currently produces around 9 million bpd, making it one of the world's largest oil producers.
