Short-term energy outlook. Quarterly projections. [End of 1986]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6356875
The Energy Information Administration's forecasts of energy supply, demand, and prices are presented through the end of 1986. The forecasts are produced using the Short-Term Integrated Forecasting System (STIFS). The STIFS model uses two principal driving variables, a macroeconomic forecast and the world oil price assumptions. Three projections are given for petroleum supply and demand, based on low, medium, and high economic growth scenarios that incorporate low, medium, and high crude oil price trajectories. Other discussions on energy product prices and supply and disposition of gasoline, distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, natural gas, coal, and electricity are based on the medium scenarios. Other cases examine the sensitivity of total petroleum demand to varying assumption about prices, weather, and economic activity. 8 figs., 18 tabs.
