As the supply revolution enters a new phase, oils role in the global energy mix is being redefined. More than ever, getting a handle on these developments is key to ensuring that energy security is maintained or enhanced, investment is appropriately targeted and resources are optimally leveraged. That makes the Medium-Term Oil Market Report's insights into the oil market for the next five years essential reading for energy industry and market stakeholders, policy makers and all those interested in energy and the broader economy. This book examines the non-conventional supply revolution that is transforming the North American oil patch that has been widely recognized as a game changer for the oil markets and looks at how this transformation is playing out against the backdrop of other relevant market developments. It asks how long the US oil boom can be expected to last, and what will it take for other countries to replicate this success story.
