World's Largest Natural Gas Producing Countries
A new report by the Energy Research Unit revealed the list of the world's largest natural gas producing countries in 2024, which includes three Arab countries.
The new report indicated a 1.2% increase in global natural gas production to 4.124 trillion cubic meters in 2024, compared to approximately 4.064 trillion cubic meters in 2023.
The report, published by the Washington-based Energy Research Unit, stated that the United States maintained its lead as the world's largest natural gas producing country, accounting for a quarter of global production.
Only four countries—the United States, Russia, Iran, and China—accounted for 53% of total global natural gas production in 2024.
The report indicated that three Arab countries maintained their positions among the top 10 producers in 2024, with Saudi Arabia continuing to outperform Norway.
The Energy Research Unit report reviewed the list of the world's largest natural gas producing countries in 2024, which included three Arab countries, as follows:
1.
United States: 1,033 billion cubic meters.
2.
Russia: 629.9 billion cubic meters.
3.
Iran: 262.9 billion cubic meters.
4.
China: 248.4 billion cubic meters.
5.
Canada: 194.2 billion cubic meters.
6.
Qatar: 179.5 billion cubic meters.
7.
Australia: 150.1 billion cubic meters.
8.
Saudi Arabia: 121.5 billion cubic meters.
9.
Norway: 113.2 billion cubic meters.

UAE's aviation authority announces framework for regulating electric air taxis
The UAE's General Civil Aviation Authority has announced a framework to regulate the use of electric and conventional helicopters in the Emirates. The rollout of the regulations will allow both electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft and conventional helicopters to operate interchangeably on the same infrastructure, reported state news agency Wam. The announcement came as two test flights took place in the UAE in recent days. On Monday, California-based Joby Aviation, in partnership with Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority, carried out an electric air taxi test flight ahead of a planned launch of commercial operations next year. Archer Aviation completed the first test flight in Abu Dhabi of its air taxi on Wednesday. 'The UAE has always been at the forefront of excellence in aviation. This pioneering regulatory framework does not merely enable new technology; it redefines how aviation evolves,' said Saif Mohammed Al Suwaidi, director general of the GCAA. 'It reflects our commitment to innovation in developing a supportive ecosystem for the growth of this vital sector and a future where advanced air mobility is seamlessly integrated into our national infrastructure.' The newly announced regulations will allow for dual-use between conventional helicopter pads and electric vertical take-off and landing pads. The framework will enable the UAE to adopt a flexible regulatory environment that keeps pace with emerging technologies without compromising safety standards, said Aqeel Al Zarouni, assistant director general for aviation safety affairs at the GCAA.

Five Arab mines lead future of nuclear energy in region
Moscow – Saba: A statistical report considered the five largest uranium mines in the Arab world to be strategic pillars that support the efforts of the region's countries to develop peaceful nuclear energy programs. According to the Russia Today website, based on a special report by the Energy Research Unit on the region's reserves, these mines, located in Algeria, Mauritania, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt, stand out as promising assets that represent significant economic and strategic opportunities. According to statistics, these mines help achieve self-sufficiency in this field, in light of the growing global demand for clean energy sources. These reserves support Dabaa nuclear power plant project, in cooperation with Russia, with a total capacity of 4,800 megawatts. These five mines represent the largest Arab uranium potential and open up broad prospects for the region's countries to enhance their energy security and develop peaceful nuclear industries. This comes amid a global shift toward low-emission technologies, where these countries are expected to play pivotal roles in the future energy mix.
