A helicopter belonging to Aramco, the world’s largest oil company, crashed in Saudi Arabia on Sunday morning, killing all 14 people on board. The accident occurred in Ras Tanura, and an investigation has been opened into the cause of the crash.
The helicopter was owned by Aramco, which is majority-owned by Saudi Arabia. Recently, the company has had to adjust its operations due to the Iran war disrupting oil supplies and raising prices. Aramco has successfully shifted some oil exports to a pipeline to avoid the Strait of Hormuz, which has been disrupted as Iran asserted control over the waterway.
