The growth of the oil and gas sector in the Middle East has a major impact on the global economy and world energy dynamics. Countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, and the United Arab Emirates are at the forefront of oil and gas exploration and production. Since the discovery of large oil reserves in the early 20th century, the region has attracted the attention of investors and global energy companies. Saudi Arabia, as the largest oil producing country, plays a key role in OPEC and world oil pricing. With the Vision 2030 program, Saudi Arabia seeks to diversify its economy by reducing dependence on oil. However, the oil and gas sector remains the main source of income. Investments in oil extraction and processing technologies continue to increase, indicating high potential for growth. Iran, although affected by international sanctions, has abundant oil and gas reserves. In 2021, Iran sought to increase production by offering long-term contracts to foreign companies. Oil from southern fields, such as the Khuzestan Field, continues to be the backbone of Iran’s economy. Iraq, which is experiencing political instability, has succeeded in increasing oil and gas production since 2010. With significant reserves in the Basra region, Iraqi oil has received the attention of investors. Development projects, such as the integration of pipeline infrastructure, strengthen Iraq’s position in the global market. Cooperation between the Iraqi government and foreign companies allows modern technology to be applied, increasing production efficiency. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is also showing impressive growth in the oil and gas sector, especially in Abu Dhabi. The UAE invests in unconventional gas exploration and renewable energy. Initiatives such as Masdar City demonstrate their commitment to reducing carbon emissions. The UAE is an example for other countries that want to explore clean energy potential while maintaining oil and gas exploration. The region also faces challenges, including political problems, sanctions and environmental issues. The global energy transition towards cleaner sources is encouraging countries in the Middle East to innovate in diversifying their energy portfolio. Investments in green technology and sustainability are becoming increasingly important. The oil and gas sector in the Middle East is not just about exploration and production. The research and development (R&D) aspect is gaining attention, with local universities and research institutes collaborating with energy companies to create innovative solutions. This includes developing technologies to increase extraction efficiency and reduce environmental impacts. Through attractive fiscal policies and international cooperation, the growth of the oil and gas sector in the Middle East remains a key driver of the regional economy. The value of oil and gas exports contributes significantly to state income. The stability of world oil prices will continue to influence growth and investment in the oil and gas sector. The post-COVID-19 pandemic recovery trend is also affecting the oil and gas sector, with demand increasing in the global market. Countries in the Middle East have the potential to take advantage of this condition in order to maintain their position as leaders in the world energy industry. Finally, the involvement of regional and international networks in the oil and gas sector opens the door to collaboration and sustainable development. With a combination of technological innovation and adaptation to global challenges, the oil and gas sector in the Middle East has the opportunity to grow and compete on the world stage in an era of ever-changing energy.
