75th anniversary of Saudi Aramco

Saudi Aramco, the world's largest petroleum company, celebrated its 75th birthday in May 2008. To mark the occasion, three days of celebrations took place in Dhahran in the east of the country. An open-air show kicked off the celebrations, followed by the tour of an exhibition on the company's history and a convention. For three weeks a team of 20 ETC technicians installed, programmed and operated all of the image projection and multimedia display equipment for each of the three sites.
