Abstract : Saudi Arabia’s distinctive place as the biggest crude oil exporter in world is menaced by rapid growth & uncontrolled local consumption of the fuel. In 2016, the domestic consumption of oil has reached to a very significant level approximately 30% of overall production of oil. The purpose of this research study is to study “Inflation in local fuel consumption in Saudi Arabia” in the power plants, transportation & desalination of Saudi Arabia, and how this influence may affect the overall production of oil of the Saudi Arabia in the next decades, that may generate a huge economic affect. There are many factors that affect the oil consumption which are annual electricity & water demand, population, expansion of transportation & industrial sector. Time Series analysis has been applied through Minitab software to forecast/projection of these factors in order to reach to the situation of the local consumption level in 2050. Many assumption has been adopted to reach best scenario which are, No depletion are considered, Saudi Arabia can produce more than 12.5 mb/d (currently 10.4mb/d) & Saudi Arabia is increasing its production of oil consumption annually. The conclusion is that, the Saudi Arabia could be net oil importer by 2047. The recommendation was focus on applying solar energy immediately on the power plant to produce electricity and the same time fresh water, adopt the Distribution Generation System, stop importing the non-energy saving lamps, expand the public transportation, make the farms self-independent of electricity through the use of bioenergy and get the benefit from the Dams through installing generators.
