In terms of broader economic activities, the results highlighted a 7.8 per cent increase in the oil activities index and a 3.5 per cent rise in the non-oil activities index.
The latest GASTAT figures underline the resilience of Saudi Arabia’s industrial sector, with growth driven by both oil and non-oil activity as the Kingdom continues to diversify its economy under Vision 2030.
