Abqaiq Airport (OEBQ) is a private airfield located in Buqayq, Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia, approximately 6 kilometers west of Abqaiq city. It is owned and operated by Saudi Arabian Oil Company (Saudi Aramco) and is not open to the general public for commercial service. Only individuals with approval from Saudi Aramco or its business partners can use the airport.
The airport features one asphalt runway, designated 15/33, which is approximately 1,851 meters (6,075 feet) long and 33-34 meters (111-112 feet) wide. Its elevation is around 229-234 feet (70-71 meters) above mean sea level.
Historically, Saudi Aramco utilized the airfield for its domestic flights, but its regular use diminished after King Fahd International Airport in Dammam became Aramco's main aviation hub. Currently, Abqaiq Airport primarily supports Saudi Aramco's operations, handling regional and private jets for approved flights, and offers ground handling services. The broader Abqaiq area is historically significant as the site of a major oil field discovered in 1940 and a large oil-processing facility.
