Al-Moammar Information Systems Company (MIS) has received its first work order under its agreement with HUMAIN, with a total value exceeding 148 percent of the company's total revenue for 2025, including value-added tax.

In a statement on Saudi Exchange on Sunday, the company said Work Order No. 1, received on October 1, covers the scope of work related to a capacity of 50 megawatts. This was the scope previously announced as part of a project to design and build data centers dedicated to artificial intelligence technologies.

The company said the financial impact of the work order began in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026.

The work order was received under an agreement signed by Al-Moammar Information Systems with HUMAIN last September, with a value exceeding 689 percent of the company's total revenue for 2025, including value-added tax. The agreement includes an expansion of the project's scope from 50 megawatts to 250 megawatts.

When the agreement was announced, the company said the engineering, procurement, and construction works would be carried out through work orders issued by HUMAIN in accordance with the terms of the agreement. The company would announce each work order upon receipt, including its value, implementation period, and financial impact.

Al-Moammar Information Systems expects to receive additional work orders related to the further expansion of the project in the coming period and will announce any material developments in this regard when they occur.

OPEC+ agreed to keep oil production targets steady for November at a meeting on Sunday, the producer group said, in line with expectations that further output policy adjustments are unlikely until next year.

Seven core members of the group comprising the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies including Russia made the decision for November in a brief online meeting on Sunday. The core members are Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, Kuwait, Algeria, Kazakhstan and Oman.

Oil prices had dropped on Friday after European leaders agreed to US President Donald Trump's request to release diesel reserves. Even so, Brent crude remains above $100 a barrel, up from about $73 before the Iran war started in late February.

The Iran war has also delayed the group's output capacity review — crucial to determine members’ 2027 output quotas — because it has thrown estimates of future production potential into uncertainty, industry sources told Reuters last week.

OPEC+ has been raising output targets for much of 2026 after years of production cuts, but most of the increases stayed on paper because of the Middle East conflict.

The seven core OPEC+ members pumped 25 million barrels per day in August, up 630,000 bpd from July, yet still roughly 5 million bpd below prewar levels in February, OPEC data shows.

The seven hold their next meeting on November 1.

OPEC+ still has about 2 million bpd of output cuts in place covering most members. It needs the result of the capacity review to decide how to distribute increases and any changes to output are unlikely before 2027, sources have said.

A separate OPEC+ ministerial group called the Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee (JMMC), which does not decide policy, also met on Sunday to review the market.

The Ministry of Energy today announced the results of a competition for a license to establish, own, and operate a natural gas distribution network in the industrial city of Al-Kharj in central Saudi Arabia.

The ministry had previously invited interested investors to participate in the competition to obtain the license and completed the procedures for qualifying bidders, launching the competition, and evaluating the bids.

As part of the competition, Natural Gas Distribution Company was awarded a license to establish, own, and operate the distribution network in the industrial city of Al-Kharj.

The competition will contribute to the objectives of the Liquid Fuel Displacement Program and the replacement of liquid fuels with natural gas, with the aim of maximizing the economic, environmental, and social benefits that the Kingdom derives from its petroleum resources as part of Vision 2030.

The launch of the competition is part of the ministry's efforts to strengthen the natural gas sector's infrastructure and stimulate investment in the sector by creating an attractive competitive environment that enables beneficiaries to access natural gas and improves the quality of services provided.

What Does Saudi Exchange’s New Market Order Mechanism Mean?

Saudi Exchange began implementing an updated market order mechanism on October 4, 2026, in the Main Market and Nomu-Parallel Market, in a move aimed at improving execution efficiency and making better use of available market liquidity.

What is a market order?

A market order is a buy or sell order executed immediately at the best available prices in the order book, without the investor specifying a particular price.

This type of order is typically used when an investor prioritizes speed of execution over obtaining a specific price.

How did the previous mechanism work?

Previously, a market order was executed against the quantity available at the best price only.

For example, if an investor wanted to buy 10,000 shares and only 3,000 shares were available at the best price, those 3,000 shares would be executed, while the remaining quantity would be converted into a limit order at the price of the last executed portion.

What has changed?

Under the new mechanism, a market order can now be executed across multiple price levels, within a range of up to five price ticks starting from the best available price.

This allows the order to access additional liquidity available at nearby price levels, rather than being limited to the quantity available at the best price alone.

What happens if the entire order is not executed?

Once the maximum permitted range is reached, or if no additional quantities are available within the specified range, the remaining unexecuted quantity is converted into a limit order at the price of the last execution.

What is the purpose of the update?

Saudi Exchange said the update aims to:

  • Increase the quantities executed immediately.
  • Improve the use of available market liquidity.
  • Reduce the likelihood of large portions of orders remaining unexecuted.
  • Enhance the efficiency of the trading mechanism.
  • Support market depth and improve the investor experience.

Does the update apply to all markets?

No. The update applies only to shares listed on the Main Market and Nomu-Parallel Market. It does not apply to the derivatives market, which will continue to use the current mechanism.

Why has the update attracted investors' attention?

The mechanism used to execute orders directly affects the speed of trade execution and the efficiency of access to liquidity, particularly for stocks with gaps between price levels or limited trading volumes.
