- Saudi Aramco, the world's largest oil company, said on Sunday it had posted a 25 percent rise in first-quarter net profit, mainly due to higher sales, while its East-West pipeline, which bypasses the Strait of Hormuz, reached full capacity.

Aramco, the world's largest oil exporter, announced net profits of $32.5 billion for the three months ending March 31, exceeding the London Stock Exchange Group's estimate of $30.95 billion.
