A manufacturing facility in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia’s Industrial Production Index (IPI) rose 8.9% in October 2025to 116.51 points, from 106.99 points a year earlier, according to data released by the General Authority for Statistics (GASTAT). 
GASTAT attributed the increase to higher activity in mining and quarrying, manufacturing, electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning, as well as water supply, sewage, waste management and treatment activities.
The IPI measures the relative change in production quantities of materials and goods, tracking their transformation from raw materials to final consumable products for economic returns.

The mining and quarrying sub-index rose 11.5% YoY, supported by Saudi Arabia’s oil output increasing to 10 million barrels per day (bpd) in October from 8.9 million bpd in the same month a year earlier.
The manufacturing sub-index increased by 5.5% YoY, driven by an 8% rise in the manufacturing of coke and refined petroleum products, as well as an 8.1% jump in the manufacturing of chemicals and chemical products.
