'''Rabigh Refining & Petrochemical Company''' ('''Petro Rabigh''') is a Saudi Arabia
The plant is valued at about SAR 16.71 billion (25% funded by the public and the remainder equally funded by Saudi Aramco and Sumitomo Chemical) and originally produced 18.4 million tons per annum (mtpa) of petroleum-based products and 2.4 mtpa of ethylene and propylene-based derivatives.
Petro Rabigh products are used in such end products as plastics, detergents, lubricants, resins, coolants, anti-freeze, paint, carpets, rope, clothing, shampoo, auto interiors, epoxy glue, insulation, film, fibers, household appliances, packaging, candles, pipes and many other applications.
Petro Rabigh II is an expansion project valued at US$9 billion that reached full production by 4th Quarter 2017 and provided a wide range of new high value-added products, some of which are exclusive to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Middle East.
It is a site next to Petro Rabigh where downstream industries utilize Petro Rabigh products as feedstock to produce chemical compounds such as polyols, [[polymer stabilizers]], xylenes and solvents. The Rabigh Plastic Technical Center (R-PTC), a facility run by Sumitomo Chemical, provides technical support and training in plastic processing technology.
It is considered the first producer of many [[Petrochemical|petrochemical products]] and the only producer of [[propylene oxide]] in the [[Middle East]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |date=2019-01-31 |title=Petro Rabigh developments impress foreign diplomats in Saudi Arabia |url=https://www.arabnews.com/node/1444701/saudi-arabia |access-date=2021-11-08 |website=[[Arab News]] |language=en}}</ref>
