Synopsis
Access to oil and natural gas, and their prices, are hugely important axes of geo-political strategy and global economic prospects and have been for a century. This book, written by a Financial Times journalist who has long covered the energy sector, provides readers with the essential information they need for understanding the shifting structure of the global oil and gas economy: where the reserves lie, who produces what, trade patterns, consumption trends, prices. The book highlights political and social issues in the global energy sector -- the domestic inequality, civil conflict and widespread poverty that dependence on oil exports inflicts on developing countries and the strategies of wealthy countries (especially the United States) to control oil-rich regions. Energy demand is on a strong upward trend. The reality of the environmental damage caused by fossil fuels cannot be doubted. What are likely to be the human consequences: changing disease vectors, unprecedented flooding, mass migration? And what is to be done both in the wealthy countries where consumerism drives increasing growth in demand and in developing countries aiming to grow their economies faster? Are alternative energy sources a panacea? Or will the much vaunted hydrogen economy still be based on oil, natural gas and coal? Here is a book that addresses what is perhaps the most pervasive and destabilizing of the issues facing humanity., Access to oil and natural gas, and their prices, are hugely important axes of geo-political strategy and global economic prospects and have been for a century.

Are alternative energy sources a panacea? Or will the much vaunted hydrogen economy still be based on oil, natural gas and coal?Here is a book that addresses what is perhaps the most pervasive and destabilizing of the issues facing humanity., This informative survey of the global oil and gas industry covers both its changes and its continuities. The reader is introduced to what is happening in both producer and consumer states, to governments and corporations, to current trends and likely future developments. Fundamental questions are asked: notably who benefits? Why is the economic development record of so many oil exporting states so abysmal? How does oil extraction exacerbate ethnic and regional tensions in the world? What are the human rights and environmental issues involved? Above all, what future for fossil fuels as our climate changes? This account is vital reading for anyone wanting to understand the impact of oil and gas on our world today.
