Yemen's Houthi movement said it carried out a missile and drone attack on a Saudi Aramco facility in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, according to a report by Turkey's Anadolu Agency.
The claim could not be independently verified, and Saudi authorities had not issued an official comment on the alleged attack as of 2000 GMT.
The reported strike would mark the latest in a series of attacks the Houthis have claimed against targets inside Saudi Arabia amid ongoing tensions between the group and the kingdom.
Saudi Aramco, one of the world's largest oil companies, has previously been targeted in attacks that have raised concerns about energy supply stability in the Gulf region.
Further details on the alleged attack, including any assessment of damage, were not immediately available.
