I am going to give you a very simple answer and you may ask more questions if this is not enough. First, it doesn't look like a place that should have oil, as you probably know that oil comes from dead plant and animal life, of which there isn't a whole lot of in Saudi Arabia. But this is the Saudi Arabia of today, not 150 - 300 million years ago when the organic source materials were deposited in the shallow marine basins. The very large oil field of Ghawar, in Saudi Arabia and others were formed because all the right elements were present millions of years ago. The five conditions for a commercial oil field are: 1) Source: sufficient organic material that will form oil 2) Seal: development of cap rock, structural seals on the flanks or by underlain water, the oil is trapped 3) Structure: it must be contain sufficient hydrocarbons 4) Thermal history: the trapped hydrocarbons must have time (at least 20 million years, for Saudi Arabia, most is > 150 million years), and temperature to become oil and 5) Good flow characteristics: sufficient openings in the rocks and the right fluid properties (not too heavy or volatile) to be commercially viable. If you research further the geology of Saudi Arabia, you will find each of these conditions was in abundance. Saudi Arabia was a very lush area with mountains and marine life about 300 million years ago. The carbonate reservoirs were formed from limestone, which derive their calcium from dead marine life, that precipitates out of the water. The seal is composed of various evaporites (anhydrites, NaCl) , which are impermable to flow. The openings in the rocks were enlarged by secondary processes, making for excellent flow characteristics. Making a reservoir is something like making a cake, you need all the right ingredients, a container and it has to cook at the right temperature for a period of time. Two other characteristics, for the oil reservoir, is that it has to be large enough and oil can flow easily. (See related link) It is also needs to be remembered that the Middle East region during the age of carbon was almost jungle-like for millions of years, not the dry arid desserts.
It is the primary source of income for those countries.
Some of those Natural Resources they need for the economy, like Canada has a lot of forests, so they sell lumber for money and the same as Saudi Arabia with oil
Crude oil densities vary from Saudi Arabian fields, so a single specific gravity is not possible. However, for purposes of benchmarking crude, the Dubai crude is 31 degrees API (0.871).
That depends on the energy source used to clean the water. Desalination plants along the coast of Saudi Arabia operate by burning oil, so quite a bit of carbon is released, even though desalination technology has undergone substantial improvement in recent years. Sewage treatment plants in the Pacific Northwest are powered by hydroelectricity, which releases very little carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere in comparison.
The country of Jordan is irregularly shaped and is neither square or rectangular. The country is bordered by Syria, Israel, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. There are so many places to visit like Petra, Wadi Rum, Masada, Dead sea etc.
First of all, the question should have been: How was Monument Valley formed? Monument Valley (U.S.A.) is made from sandstone and is an ancient seabed. Exposure to the atmosphere and weather has gradually, over millions of years, eroded much of the soft sandstone, leaving the slightly harder portions standing. The erosion is still ongoing but rather slow, so in a few more million years Monument Valley will be just a flat desert, assuming that the world's climate does not change sufficiently to turn the area into more fertile land. Global climate changes are a natural phenomenon, and there are some good examples to prove this: Alaska is currently very cold, and Saudi Arabia is a hot desert. Both have large oil reserves, but all crude oil originates from plant matter, namely ancient trees that grew in swampy rainforests (the water stops fallen trees rotting too quickly). As new layers of matter are deposited on top of the dead forest the pressure compacts the wood first into coal and later into oil. Nowadays there is no sign of such forests in either of the two countries in my example, but the oil is there. This means that long time ago Alaska had a tropical climate, and Saudi Arabia received plenty of rain! So the future of Monument Valley is quite hard to predict; it might even become a sea bed once more, and there is no politician who could stop this happening regardless of how much tax is levied on the population of the world...and all politicians know this!
Saudi Arabia is producing a lot of oil because it has large oil reserves. Saudi Arabia has one of the largest oil reserves in the world, and producing enough oil to trade to other countries, mainly the US, is very profitable for Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia exports gas to the international market from which every country buys its needs from oil. So, Saudi Arabia does not exports oil to a specific country.
That oil provides a lot of monetary income to the Saudis.
Petroleum is the biggest natural resource of Saudi Arabia which has made it so much wealthy and any other resource other than Petroleum is not mentionable.
That's where Saudi Arabia is (in middle east), and Saudi Arabia have lots of oil, and all the countries around the world gets the oil from Saudi Arabia..so if a conflict or a war causes all the countries are gonna get difficulties to get the oil.
because people need oil so use electricity and more jobs can be supplied and all that good stuff and Saudi Arabia has the most oil so they decide to get it from there!
So we can get more oil for stuff like gas.
oil
earned great wealth from the oil industry
Very much so.
Israeli firms are banned from working in Saudi Arabia, so there is no "dominant Israeli firm" in Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia did not qualify for the World Cup finals, so i doubt there is much on offer.
