China
The emergence of China as a net oil importer in 1995-1996 was a watershed event in the global oil markets. Ever since, energy developments in China have had repercussions around the world. In anticipation of this change, in 1994, ESAI published China’s Oil Industry and the Market: Emerging Asia Market Maker? This prescient analysis was followed six years later in 2000 with Fueling China: Oil and Gas Demand to 2010.
In 1995, ESAI partnered with China Statistical Information and Consulting (Beijing) to analyze data from China’s petroleum sector. With this proprietary flow of data, ESAI launched Chinawatch, a monthly analysis of supply/demand developments as well as detailed analysis of China’s political, regulatory and foreign policy decisions.
Chinawatch remains the industry standard for timely, thoughtful analysis and insight on the Chinese energy situation. For more on how ESAI can help you understand energy developments in China and their implications for the rest of the world, and receive a complimentary copy of the current issue of Chinawatch, contact Sonny Kanlier at skanlier@esai.com or 781-245-2036.
