Dhahran

Dhahran

Dhahran is a city located in Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. It is a major administrative center for the Saudi oil industry. It forms part of the Dammam Metropolitan; the Dammam metropolitan area, or greater Dammam, is the metropolitan area associated with the city of Ad Dammam, Eastern Province, and its suburbs. It is the area that is closely linked to the city through social, economic, and cultural ties. The Dammam metropolitan area—mainly known as greater Dammam—is the largest metropolitan area in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia formed by three main neighboring cities: Dammam, Dhahran, and Khobar. These three respectable cities are sometimes referred to as the triplet cities. The metropolitan area of the triplet cities has an estimated population of 4,140,000 as of 2012. Greater Dammam also includes many other smaller cities such as Al Qatif, Safwa, and Ras Tanura. The complete metropolitan area has an estimated population of 5,100,000, making it the fifth largest populated area in the Kingdom. Large oil reserves were first identified in the Dhahran area in 1931, and in 1935, Standard Oil drilled the first commercially viable oil well.
