International Energy Outlook 1986: Projections to 2000

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6537216
This issue emphasizes oil market developments, particularly future world oil prices and oil production potential. This emphasis in no way minimizes the importance of other energy markets; moreover, the analysis recognizes that the development of alternative energy sources impacts directly on the world oil market. The world oil price projections developed in this international setting are, in turn, used as assumptions for analyses of the US domestic energy market provided in EIA's Annual Energy Outlook 1986. Since the US energy market affects and is affected by the international market, the methodology incorporates this interaction to the extent possible. The domestic energy projections shown in this report are the same as those contained in the Annual Energy Outlook 1986, with the exception of the outlook for domestic oil production. Because of the recent downward revision in oil production statistics for 1986, the domestic oil production projections have been updated to be consistent with those contained in EIA's January 1987 Short-Term Energy Outlook. These short-term production projections have been extended such that they trend back to the projections for 1995 provided in the Annual Energy Outlook 1986. Sources providing more detailed discussions on the US domestic markets are referenced throughout the report.
