Dynamique de l’offre pétrolière, stratégies d’investissement et comportements de stockage: Un état des lieux
Authors
April 1, 2015

Cet article vise à mieux comprendre la relative inélasticité-prix de l’offre de pétrole et tente de démontrer, qu’au-delà du niveau des prix, la volatilité et la structure de marché ont une influence considérable sur la stratégie des firmes productrices tant à court terme qu’à long terme. Pour cela, différentes variables doivent être considérées : la nature du jeu stratégique entre les producteurs dans un contexte d’oligopole, la nature des chocs d’offre ou de demande jouant sur l’arbitrage production/stockage, ainsi que l’ampleur de l’incertitude à laquelle les producteurs doivent faire face lorsqu’ils s’engagent dans une stratégie d’investissement en capacité de production.

Such techn ...

    Is regional policy necessary? If so, under what circumstances? The first part of the chapter discusses the rationale behind the existence of (or the need for) regional policies in general. Cases in which excessive concentration or inequality hinders national economic growth are natural candidates for regional policies. If concentration and inequality favor national growth and competitiveness, regional interventions call for a different sort of argument, such as national unity or coh ...

Une suprématie écrasante, renforcée encore récemment par l’acquisition des divisions commerciales des deux derniers concurrents significatifs dans le domaine des monocouloirs courts courriers : le Canad ...
