Much to most of KSA's oil is full of heavy sulfur content and is considered sour. Virtually all of the Texas oil is considered sweet. WTI (Texas Sweet) is basically the benchmark for the best oil. Some of the best oil (sweet) in the middle east traditionally was from Libya, but since team america world police took out Gadaffi it has been a mess there. I'm not very familiar with Canadian oil as we don't need much of it here. https://www.oilandgasmiddleeast.com/drilling-production/3496... """
Saudi crude is generally a mix of heavy to medium sour oil, which is generally high in sulfur and yields a decent amount of residual fuel and vacuum gasoil.

The major producers of sour crude oil include ... Saudi Arabia
""" I wasn't meaning they have no sweet light crude oil, only that it is the overwhelming minority of what they have. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-middle-east-crude/analysi... |
