Who was next to ARAMCO?

Answer: It is RASGas in Qatar whom has experienced virus outbreak, the computers network has been taken off for 3 days ,so far, by unknown virus. but let me guess, it can be shamoon or one of his cousins.
ARAMCO at KSA, RASGas at Qatar, will UAE be the next ? specially with remote offices around the GCC ?

However stopping or reducing the impact can be done by applying basics of the IT security as listed in the following blogs:
Stop Shamoon before it is too late
Making Life Difficult for Malware
