Saudi Arabia is based on two fluids - water and oil. Oil is considered by many to be the country's most important natural resource. However, for the Saudis themselves, water is becoming increasingly valuable. Oil revenues are rising, allowing skyscrapers to be built at breakneck speed. But water supplies are steadily declining. As it turned out, they are finite, the end is near and threatens the very existence of the desert kingdom. The main source of fresh water on the peninsula is the Arabian aquifer, formed 20 thousand years ago, when the climate in this area was much more humid. This is one of the world's largest aquifers, the water in which lies at a depth of 100 to 500, and sometimes 2500 meters. An aquifer is a thickness of similar in composition permeable, water-saturated deposits that have a sheet-like occurrence. When the aquifer reaches the surface, springs, springs, springs are formed.
