The General Authority for Statistics (GASTAT) released the results of the Industrial Production Index (IPI) for February 2026, which showed an increase of 8.9% compared to the same month of the previous year, supported by growth in mining and quarrying, manufacturing, and water supply, sewerage, waste management, and remediation activities.
In terms of sub-indices, the sub-index for mining and quarrying activity recorded a year-on-year increase of 13.0%. The manufacturing sub-index rose by 3.6%, while the sub-index for water supply, sewerage, waste management, and remediation activities increased by 8.1%. In contrast, the sub-index for electricity, gas, steam, and air conditioning supply recorded a year-on-year decrease of 3.7%.
As for the main economic activities, the results showed a 11.5% year-on-year increase in the oil activities index and a 2.4% increase in the non-oil activities index.
It is noteworthy that the IPI is an economic indicator that reflects the relative changes in the volume of industrial production, based on data from the Industrial Production Survey. The survey is conducted on a sample of establishments operating in the targeted industrial activities, namely mining and quarrying, manufacturing, electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply, as well as water supply, sewerage, waste management, and remediation activities.
