Petroleum, Gas and Development Strategies of Saudi Arabia

This book describes how Saudi Arabia's oil, gas and mineral resources were discovered, and looks at key stages in the development of the oil and gas industries. Close attention is paid to the refining, manufacturing, marketing and export of natural resources and the setting up of refineries in Saudi Arabia. Taher outlines the role played by government in defining strategies and drawing up plans for economic development which have produced vast revenues for the Kingdom. He also looks at the negotiations and conferences in which Saudi Arabia took part in its efforts to regain control over its natural resources, and guarantee stable oil prices.
