Yes, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia produces ships. In 2019, Saudi Aramco signed two contracts to establish factories for producing giant ships and marine platforms at the King Salman International Complex for Maritime Industries and Services in Ras al-Khair area.

The manufacturing zones in the complex, which is considered the largest fully integrated maritime yard in the Middle East and North Africa, include an area for building giant ships consisting of two dry docks, industrial buildings, and high-capacity lifting equipment.

The annual production capacity of the complex reaches approximately the manufacturing of three large oil tankers, ten other tankers, and the construction of six marine supply vessels, with the capability to repair 116 ships of the same type.
