Refinery, Mining & Maritime IT/OT Security — Ras Tanura & Ras Al-Khair

The northern Eastern Province is one of Saudi Arabia's heaviest industrial belts: the Ras Tanura refinery — among the largest in the Kingdom — and, about 100 km north, Ras Al-Khair Minerals Industrial City, home to Maaden's phosphate and aluminium complexes, the Hadeed steel works and the King Salman Global Maritime Industries Complex shipyard. These are exactly the environments where IT failures and unsegmented operational-technology (OT) networks carry real safety and production consequences.

Skyline provides industrial IT and OT-security services tuned to refineries, smelters, mineral processing, steel and maritime sites. We segment OT/ICS networks from corporate IT, design hardened control-room and server-room infrastructure, deploy industrial Wi-Fi and structured cabling rated for harsh process areas, and stand up CCTV, perimeter and access control for gates, yards and quay sides. Our security work is built to align with NCA expectations, including OT cybersecurity controls (OTCC), and supports your own compliance and Aramco/Maaden contractor obligations — we deliver capability and alignment, not certifications we don't hold.

Because these sites sit far from city service desks, our model centres on resilience: SLA-backed AMC with on-site and remote response, spares staged in the Eastern Province, network and endpoint monitoring, and backup/disaster-recovery so a single failure never idles a line. As a vendor-neutral integrator and authorized reseller, we engineer with Fortinet, Cisco, Aruba, Dell, HPE and industrial-grade hardware chosen for the conditions, and keep Saudi data on in-Kingdom hosting aligned with PDPL.

Practically, that means we treat each refinery, smelter or shipyard as a high-stakes site rather than a generic office: we document the network end to end, baseline normal traffic, isolate vendor and maintenance access through controlled jump points, and rehearse failover so an incident is contained, not catastrophic. From the Ras Tanura refinery to the Maaden complexes and the maritime yards at Ras Al-Khair, Skyline gives Eastern Province operators one accountable partner for industrial IT, OT security and connectivity.
