Saudi Aramco has been named the Middle East's most valuable brand for the seventh consecutive year, with its brand value rising 14 percent to 47.3 billion dollars. The increase was driven by higher oil production following the easing of output cuts and continued expansion, despite volatile crude prices and geopolitical tensions.
The company maintained strong investment grade credit ratings and boosted production to around 10 million barrels per day between April and the third quarter of 2025. It also advanced its broader growth strategy through progress in gas production, global retail expansion, petrochemicals development, and carbon capture innovation, including the launch of the Kingdom's first direct air capture test unit.
Abu Dhabi National Oil Company ranked second with a brand value of 21.13 billion dollars, followed by Saudi Telecom Company at 17.6 billion dollars. Major banks and companies from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar also featured in the top ten, reflecting strong performance across the region’s energy, telecommunications, aviation, and financial sectors.
