The Uthmaniyah oil field was the leading fossil fuel extraction project in Saudi Arabia in terms of lifetime emissions. Emissions of over 28 billion tons of carbon dioxide equivalent were attributed to this onshore oil field between the beginning of operations in 1956 and 2018. Uthmaniyah is just one of six oil fields that makes up the Ghawar oil field, the world's largest conventional oil field by reserves and production.
