Hi all
My family and I are relocating to KSA, it is suggested that we will be living in Abqaiq with my husband commuting to Dhahran. We have two young children ages 7 and 5. I would appreciate anyone giving me more information about living, commuting, schooling, facilities and clubs for children etc.

Hi
Husband and myself due out to Ras Tanura within next few weeks. We live outside Aberdeen ( Mintlaw). Was wondering how you are finding it and how did the flight out go. Any tips on what we should bring with us? We are arriving with two suitcases each. Not bring furniture from home.
Any pointers would be great.
Regards
Lynsay Thomson

Hi Lynsay, Fellow Aberdonian here  I've been offered a secretarial position in Dhahran (subject to change), currently awaiting medical and orientation. I wondered how you were settling in, and if you had any advice (also planning to travel light). Thanks! Wendy |

Hi,
Obviously a few people from Aberdeen around..
My husband has also been offered a position to work at Tanajib (5/2).
I have received the outside Saudi Aramco accommodation list but looking at previous posts, finding accommodation seems to be an issue just now and I am not quite sure what to expect.
I am also planning to take my two cats with me.
Any recommendations from people who have been through the moving process would be welcome.
Thank you

o,
I am looking for British people who recently joined Saudia Aramco on a family status. I have questions regarding finding accommodation, international removal to KSA, etc. If any of you was living around Aberdeen, I would really appreciate if you could PM me.

Hi All,
I have just arrived, and I am settling in nicely in the Al Rakah camp. I have a couple of months until the family are coming out, is there a convenient way to make some introductions / social groups / notice boards etc.
Thanks
Ian

Hi Ian,
My husband will be arriving in KSA in less than a month. Would you be willing to share your experience on finding accommodation, organising the visas for your family members etc. Thank you

Hi All, I am moving to Dhahran soon and will be working in a secretarial position. Does anyone have time to Skype to answer a few questions that I may have on your experience there? Looking forward to hearing from you Jade |

Hi, due to join Aramco December, based in Daharnan. Any tips / recommendations would be greatly appreciated. It would be good to get advise on Car/transport, work regime, leisure facilities.
Thanks
