Saudi Arabia - June 22nd, 2014

Saudi Arabia is the top oil producer and exporter, displacing Russia from pole position, with Saudi petroleum production reaching 11.5 mb/day in 2013. Qatar, the biggest exporter of liquefied natural gas in the world, is the most important liquefied exporter of natural gas and has potential to increase production. The oil resources of the GCC are plentiful and expected to be so for years to come, meaning the Gulf will continue to be influential in Middle Eastern politics. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/articles/middle-east/12302-the-oil-resources-of-the-gcc-states
