Saudi Arabia Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by Year (1961–2023)

Saudi Arabia’s GDP growth reflects its evolution into a global energy powerhouse. GDP grew from $1.9 billion in 1961 to $164.5 billion in 1980, driven by the oil boom of the 1970s. However, the 1980s saw fluctuations due to volatile oil prices, with GDP falling to $86.9 billion in 1986.

Recent decades have marked diversification under Vision 2030, with GDP peaking at $1.1 trillion in 2022, driven by higher oil prices and non-oil sector investments, including tourism and renewable energy projects.
