Journal Article · · Energy Detente; (United States)
OSTI ID:5397814

An international conference on heavy crude and tar sands took place July 21-31 in Long Beach, California, where some 600 hard-core technical experts adhered to a principal established in 1979: that the world needs energy supply security from advance preparation to use huge untapped resources of heavy crudes and tar sands. The conventional oil market has pushed widescale development into the late 1990s. Due to the contributions at Long Beach of those that have no choice but to maximize the role of heavy oil in the market, uninterrupted world dialogue will benefit future oil-dependent generations. This issue also contains: (1) Venezuela's refined petroleum-product prices as of Aug. 9, 1985; (2) Canada, Venezuela, and N. Antilles export prices to the USA for 1984 and through Aug. 1985; (3) refining netback data for US Gulf and West Coast. Rotterdam, and Singapore as of Aug. 13, 1985; (4) and the fuel price/tax series and principal industrial fuel prices as of July 1985 for countries of the Eastern Hemisphere.
