The study depends on the econometrics analytical method to reach the objectives.

The study concluded that there is a direct relationship between the independent variable (REV) and the dependent variable (M), as a result of an increase in the value of the variable (REV) by (1%) leads to an increase in the value of the variable (M) by approximately (4.1%), This result is consistent with the economic theory and previous expectations of the study.

Moreover, the study found that there is a co-integration between oil revenues and money supply, and the trend towards its equilibrium level in the long-term can be determined for a period mor than a year.
