Jubail Industrial City is the largest industrial estate in the world. It is also home to the Middle East’s largest and world’s fourth largest petrochemical company SABIC.<\/p>\n\n
The project started in \u00a01975 and anchored by a large number of primary heavy industries especially petrochemicals and steelwork. This provided a magnet for secondary industries which utilize the products produced and further down the chain into consumer goods manufacturing. The city has good transport infrastructure such as its own port as well being connected via a six lane highway to King Abdulaziz Port Dammam<\/a>. The development of residential and commercial areas as well as other incentives have led to a constant expansion of the city which now boasts a population of 280,000.<\/p>\n\n Jubail Industrial City covers over 1,000 square kilometres and it is estimated that the city accounts for 7% of the kingdom\u2019s GDP.<\/p>\n The city is organized into distinct industrial clusters, each dedicated to specific industries. These clusters include petrochemicals, oil refining, steel manufacturing, plastics, fertilizers, and other heavy industries. The clustering of related industries fosters collaboration, resource-sharing, and overall efficiency.<\/p>\n\nIndustrial Clusters<\/h3>\n
