Its oil has the characteristics of large reserves, shallow burial, high oil content and good oil quality. The main oil producers in the Middle East are Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq and Kuwait. Because they export a lot of oil, they have become rich countries. However, because oil is a non-renewable resource, taking a little is less, so these oil-producing countries are looking for new ways of economic development. Most of the oil produced is shipped to western Europe, the United States, Japan and other places.
