Saudi Arabia's Ghawar field is the largest oil field in the world. With recoverable reserves of between 67 - 92 Billion barrels along with substantial gas reserves. We take a quick look at the field structure and production history and put the vast scale of this field into some context. We also describe how production varies across Ghawar and explain some of the geology behind these variations.
