Flag of the governorate as seen on the official website. A blue flag with a
white cog wheel. Not sure if it changed over the years or has been like that all
the time. Size of cog wheel seems to be 1/2 of flag length. Red flame in center.

The coat of arms and flag show a flame in a cogwheel as an indication of the
industry - cogwheel - and the oil and gas deposits - flame - in the governorate.
