L’industria con il 28% è tra i principali contributori al PIL del paese (105 miliardi di dollari nel 2013). L’indice della produzione industriale è aumentato dello 0,5% nel terzo trimestre del 2013 rispetto allo stesso periodo del 2012. Ciò è dovuto in particolare all’incremento delle industrie chimiche (2,3%), alla raffinazione del petrolio (8,2%), alla lavorazione dei metalli (3,6%) e alla produzione automobilistica (1,7%).
