To the ARAMCONS that I know so well both past and present, we will always be ARAMCONS.

Nothing gave me greater pleasure than to work and enjoy life in the Middle East. While there, I spent close to 20 years in Saudi Arabia. The pinnacle was the life while at ARAMCO; finally returning to the United Kingdom in 2001. It gave me personally a sense of respect and responsibility right across the kingdom, having been engaged in Dhahran, Ras Tanura, Abqaiq and Yanbu.

Congratulations ARAMCO in the 75th Anniversary and may there be many more years to come of the success that you have achieved with the continued support of their Majesties, the King and Royal Family of the country that many of us former ARAMCONS know well.   

With the kindest of regards,
Lou Coster

    Having left ARAMCO Dhahran in early '99 I find it, and the wonderful friends we made there, still in almost daily memory. The 18 years passed like a heart beat and were over far too soon. I was there for the 50th and wish I could be there for the 75th. As the birthday greeting goes,  ......and I wish you many more!

    Although I'm not an expact, just a Saudi kid who grew up in Dhahran, I still consider myself an Aramco Brat and I greatly appreciate every single second of my life in Dhahran, made friends from different cultures and backgrounds, fello brats and their parents, I got to see a whole different world and experience so many things in such a loving environment. I've always kept pictures from the 1947 in my personal collection, I wish I was there for the recreation of 1947 to live and celebrate a wonderful past. We have so many things in common that nobody would understand, even my own family, I've always kept pictures from the 1947 in my personal collection, I wish I was there for the recreation of 1947 to live and celebrate a wonderful past. Happy 75th!! yours always.
