Five major companies hold a combined 31% share of Saudi Arabia’s fuel station market, including two listed firms — Aldrees Petroleum and Transport Services Co. (Aldrees) and Saudi Automotive Services Co. (SASCO).

Aldrees leads the market with a 16.2% share of total stations across the Kingdom, followed by SASCO (8.3%), J-Oil (2.3%), Mazaya Fuel (2.17%), and Aramco (roughly 2%).

Saudi Aramco earlier acquired Sahel Fuel to strengthen its presence in retail and distribution, while SASCO acquired NAFT Services Co. to expand its network and station count.

The remaining market share is held by smaller operators and individual investors, according to an Aldrees report.
