▲'''Khurais oil field''' (Arabic:{{lang-ar|حقل خريص}}) is an [[oil field]] in [[Saudi Arabia]] that went online on June 10, 2009, adjacent to the world's largest, the [[Ghawar]] trend. The Khurais field, with an area of 2,890&nbsp;km²² and 127&nbsp;km long, is located about 250&nbsp;km southwest of [[Dhahran]] and 300150&nbsp;km north southeasteast-northeast of [[Riyadh]].<ref>[http://www.hydrocarbons-technology.com/projects/khurais/ Saudi Aramco Khurais Mega Project, Khurais, Saudi Arabia] Hydrocarbons-Technology.com accessed 7 March 2011</ref> Pilot-scale production at Khurais began in 1963, but the field was never fully developed.

==Khurais Megaproject==

A project to develop this field along with [[Abu Jifan]] and [[Mazalij]] oil fields is called the Khurais Megaproject. The project began in 2006, is led by [[Halliburton]] for wells drilling, [[Snamprogetti]] for Crudecrude and Utilitiesutilities, [[Hyundai Group|Hyundai]] for Gas,gas. It is expected to cost $3 billion, and is expected to increase Saudi Arabia's export capacity from 11.3 to 12.5 million [[Barrel per day|bpd]]. It will produce Arabian light crude, as well as 315 million [[scfd]] of [[sour gas]] for [[Shedgum Gas Plant]] and 70,000 bpd of [[Natural Gas Liquids]] (NGL) for [[Yanbu Gas Plant]].

The remote oil complex is served by [[Khurais Airport]], which provides air service for personnel commuting on a weekly basis from the [[Dammam]] area.
