what happened

According to Market Talk, Saudi Aramco expects gas investments to lift annual operating cash flow by $12 billion to $15 billion by 2030. The company is growing output and cutting its reliance on liquid fuels at home.

A finance executive put expected returns at roughly 12% to 14%, helped by government arrangements. Chief Executive Amin Nasser said that extra gas supply could release close to 1 million barrels per day of liquids for exports, since gas would replace oil products burned in power plants, factories and farms.

Aramco targets an 80% increase in gas output between 2021 and 2030.

why it matters

For oil markets, the substitution effect matters: if gas displaces liquid fuel at home, more oil products can be shipped abroad, which could add supply and weigh on Brent. For investors, the cash-flow target is a key yardstick for judging whether the gas plan will pay off.
