Distribution

of

OilSlide6

One of the most important

natural resources

in this region is oil.

It was discovered in Persia (now Iran) in

1908.

In the 1930s, more oil was found on the Arabian Peninsula and around the Persian

Gulf.

Discovery

Today, over half of the world’s oil reserves are found in this region.

The

Middle East

has become

extremely important to other countries as

it has taken control of oil production.

This region has been completely transformed due to the discovery of oil

.

Traditional ways of life are disappearing as the oil industry develops and modernizes the region.

Southwest Asia has the world’s largest known oil

reserves, and Saudi

Arabia and Iran have the largest deposits of oil.

Khurais – Largest Oil Field in Saudi ArabiaSlide12

Many countries around the world depend on oil to meet their everyday needs.

Oil (petroleum) is used for:

Fuel

Medicines

Plastics (Think of everything that’s made with plastic!)

Fertilizers & Pesticides

Cleansers

Countries need oil, but most don’t have it, so they must buy it from oil-producing countries.

Oil’s Importance

WrinklesSlide14

Because so many countries need oil, Southwest Asia’s oil-producing countries have taken control of the global economy.

Many Southwest Asian countries have become dependent on oil sales.

Money

from oil sales has been used to better the lives of the people in the oil-producing countries.

Oil

and natural gas have brought much wealth to some countries in this

region.

Oil-producing

countries have enjoyed

an improved standard of living.

Citizens that live in these countries may

have access to quality houses, food, health care, education, jobs, transportation, communication, and luxury items.

The countries have used the money to build modern buildings, schools, factories, hospitals,

etc.

Also

, they have been able to pave old roads and build new ones.

The

life expectancy in these countries has increased by over 15 years because of advancements in healthcare, hospitals, medicines, education, etc.

Kuwait City – Capital of KuwaitSlide20

Money from oil sales transformed Saudi Arabia from a poor, nomadic society to a very wealthy, modernized one.

Turkey has benefited from the oil industry because it is a transportation hub for countries moving oil to sell in Europe.

Afghanistan also profits as a transportation link when oil is shipped to Central Asia via the Arabian Sea.

Iran and Iraq are also oil-rich, but their countries have suffered from war and mismanagement of oil money.

Examples

WrinklesSlide21

Some countries have grown very rich due to their oil production (Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait), while countries without oil are

struggling.

Southwest

Asian countries without oil have a much harder time improving living conditions for their

population.

This

drastic difference in the distribution of oil wealth has led to many conflicts among Southwest Asian nations.

Much of the world’s oil is under Southwest

Asia, but oil

reserves are not distributed evenly among the region’s

countries.

Saudi

Arabia & other countries along the Persian Gulf coast have a lot of oil and are all wealthy

countries.

The wealth from oil sales is not evenly distributed among the citizens of the countries in Southwest Asia.

Distribution of Oil

*Billions of barrels of oil

 Your Task: Use the chart above to create a 3-D model of the oil production, consumption, & reserves in the world. You will be using a world map, clay, and pipe cleaners to create your model.

 Use

a red marker to circle the 7 regions listed in the chart on your map.Divide the clay into seven pieces and place each piece on the regions listed above.

Using a scale of 1 centimeter = one billion barrels of oil, place pipe cleaner lengths (representing consumption, production and reserves) in each region using the clay as a base. (Do not use pipe cleaners to measure reserves in Southwest Asia—I will give you yarn for this one.)Ex) Europe’s pipe cleaners will be 3 cm, 5 cm, and 23 cm.

 Draw

a key for your map below. (For example, red pipe cleaner = Production)

Answer

the comprehension questions below:

Which countries are producing more oil than they are consuming

?

What can they do with their extra oil

?

Which countries are consuming more oil than they are producing?

What must these countries do in order to get more oil

?

What do you think the economy of Southwest Asia should be based on their oil production and reserves?
