Conference · · Energy Technol. (Wash., D.C.); (United States)
OSTI ID:5603640

The application of the LOTUS 1-2-3 electronic spreadsheet concept to more than just an accounting application is demonstrated. A free world oil demand and supply model is demonstrated as a scenario forecasting tool. The OIL MARKET/PC model includes detailed data on world oil supply a framework for incorporating nonconventional liquid fuels into future production of world oil, an OPEC supply response module and detailed region-specific demand estimates. The modeling time period is 1980 to 2030, with five-year increments to 2000 and then ten-year increments to 2030. Data for the model come from a variety of public sources but especially the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. Samples of model output are presented. 10 references, 4 figures.
