2025年2月,沙特阿拉伯的贸易顺差从去年同期的294亿里亚尔扩大到306亿里亚尔。这是自2024年4月以来最大的贸易顺差,因为出口下降幅度小于进口。出口同比下降2.6%,至937亿沙特里亚尔的三个月低点,原因是石油出口下降7.9%,占总出口的72.1%。与此同时,非石油出口增长了14.3%。中国仍然是沙特出口的最大目的地,占总量的16.2%,其次是韩国(10.1%)和阿联酋(9.8%)。与此同时,进口下降5.6%,至632亿沙特里亚尔的14个月低点,主要受机械、电气设备和零部件采购下降(-0.7%)的影响,这些采购占进口总额的23.5%。相比之下,运输设备和零部件进口激增24.3%,占进口总额的15.4%。在主要供应商中,中国也保持了最大的进口份额,为24.1%,其次是美国(7.3%)和印度(6.7%)。
Saudi Arabia’s trade surplus widened to SAR 30.6 billion in February 2025, up from SAR 29.4 billion in the same month last year. It marked the largest trade surplus since April 2024, as exports fell less than imports. Exports dropped 2.6% yoy to a three-month low of SAR 93.7 billion, due to a 7.9% decline in oil exports, which accounted for 72.1% of total exports. Meanwhile, non-oil exports grew by 14.3%. China remained the top destination for Saudi exports, representing 16.2% of the total, followed by South Korea (10.1%) and the UAE (9.8%). Meanwhile, imports shrank by 5.6% to a 14-month low of SAR 63.2 billion, weighed by a decline in purchases of machinery, electrical equipment, and parts (-0.7%), which constituted 23.5% of total imports. By contrast, transportation equipment and parts imports surged by 24.3%, which represented 15.4% of total imports. Among the major suppliers, China also kept the largest share of imports at 24.1%, followed by the US (7.3%) and India (6.7%).
