World petroleum outlook - 1984. Hearing before the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, United States Senate, Ninety-Eighth Congress, Second Session, January 30, 1984
Energy Secretary Hodel was the principal witness at a hearing on the world petroleum situation and the status of the world oil market. Of concern to the committee was what will happen after the current supply surplus ends, the effect of the Iran-Iraq war on shipping from the Middle East, and continued US dependence on oil imports. Hodel reviewed DOE analyses and supply projections for 1984, which he considered grounds for optimism as long as the US does not become complacent. Other expert witnesses were Melvin Conant of Conant and Associates, Ltd., Anthony H. Cordesman of the Armed Forces Journal, and Ambassador Herman Eilts of Boston University's Center for International Relations. An appendix with DOE responses to additional committee questions follows the testimony.
