Iran continues to rely heavily on the oil sector. In 1969/70 the GNP contribution of oil amounted to 13.9 percent, and oil revenues represented some 54 percent of total Government revenues, a share that has remained at roughly the same level during the past five-year period. The foreign exchange contribution of the oil sector also reached an extremely high level; in 1969/70 some 82 percent of foreign exchange receipts from exports of goods came from oil, and for the year 1970/71 the share is expected to increase to 82.5 percent. ii. Three types of operators are active in the Iranian oil sector;: (1) th,e Consortium, a group of European and U.S. oil comDanies that took over the exploration and exploitation from the nationalized Anglo-Iranian Oil ComEnnnv (2) the National Trania n-Oil Gompan;v responsible for over1l exploitation of oil resources in Iran, and also for domestic distribution and sale of oil (rtoducts,(3 the fonreiogn oil comnanies, opTating since 1957 in joint venture with NIOC. iii. The Consortium is the most important operator in Iran; its share is0 ovec,r °,O Ypercent of04 Troucio&' In-- -c -- porti4- of4- -It oil. a:Lso--' operates the Abadan refinery both for export and internal consumption OJ oil products. Reven.ues from Consortium operations represent some 96 percent of total income from the oil sector accruing to the Government. iv. NIOC is mostly operating in the domestic market, and is responlsible for supplying internl deman-Lu d for petroleuLm productis. To thiLs end, it operates several refineries, a pipeline network, and road transportation and retail out- lets. NI'CU is also engageu in exploration and exploitation, both on it.3 own account, and in conjunction with foreign partners. Several of' NIOC's joint ventures are in full operation now, producing about 10 percent of Iran's overall output; the majority however, are still in the exploration stage. v. Two wholly-owned subsidiaries of NIOC are responsible for petro- leum related fields, the National Iranian Gas Company for the distribution and sRle of gas, and the National Petrochemical Company; the activities of the latter company are fully discussed in a report by the Industrial Mission which visited Iran in early 1971. The NIGC will ultimately assume respon- sibility for the Iranian Gas Trunkline (IGAT); its activities at present are limited. vi. Short- and long-term prospects for continued growth in the oil sector in Iran are quite good. Exports are expected to grow by 10 to 12 percerLt annually, and per ton revenue around 4 percent. This would result in 14 to 16 percent yearly increases in overall revenues to the Government, which is roughly the same growth rate achieved during the past decade. The year ]-971/72 however, shows a'sizeable discontinuity in the series due to agreements ccncluded in November 1970 and February 1971. Government revenue from the external oil sector will increase by almost 60 percent over the level obtained in 1970/71. - ii - vii. The

    The Reason Given for the UK's Decision to Float Sterling Was the Weight of International Short-Term Capital

    - Issue No. 181 No. 190, July 6, 1972 The Pound Afloat: The reason given for the U.K.'s decision to float sterling was the weight of international short-term capital movements which, despite concerted intervention from the Bank of England and European central banks, had necessitated massive sup­ port operations. The U.K. is anxious that the rate should quickly o.s move to a "realistic" level, at or around the old parity of %2. 40 - r,/, .• representing an effective 8% devaluation against the dollar. A w formal devaluation coupled with a wage freeze was urged by the :,I' Bank of England, but this would be politically embarrassing in the }t!IJ light of the U.K. Chancellor's repeated statements that the pound was "not at an unrealistic rate." The decision to float has been taken in spite of a danger that this may provoke an international or European monetary crisis. European markets tend to consider sterling as the dollar's first line of defense and, although the U.S. Treasury reaffirmed the Smithsonian Agreement, there are fears throughout Europe that pressure on the U.S. currency could disrupt the exchange rate re­ lationship established last December. On the Continent, the Dutch and Belgians have put forward a scheme for a joint float of Common Market currencies against the dollar. It will not easily be implemented, since speculation in the ex­ change markets has pushed the various EEC countries in different directions. The Germans have been under pressure to revalue, the Italians to devalue. Total opposition to a Community float is ex­ pected from France (this would sever the ties between the franc and gold), and the French also are adamant that Britain should re­ affirm its allegiance to the European monetary agreement and return to a fixed parity.

    Caspian Oil and Gas Complements Other IEA Studies of Major Supply Regions, Such As Middle East Oil and Gas and North African Oil and Gas

    3 FOREWORD The Caspian region contains some of the largest undeveloped oil and gas reserves in the world. The intense interest shown by the major international oil and gas companies testifies to its potential. Although the area is unlikely to become “another Middle East”, it could become a major oil supplier at the margin, much as the North Sea is today. As such it could help increase world energy security by diversifying global sources of supply. Development of the region’s resources still faces considerable obstacles. These include lack of export pipelines and the fact that most new pipeline proposals face routing difficulties due to security of supply considerations,transit complications and market uncertainties. There are also questions regarding ownership of resources, as well as incomplete and often contradictory investment regimes. This study is an independent review of the major issues facing oil and gas sector developments in the countries along the southern rim of the former Soviet Union that are endowed with significant petroleum resources: Azerbaijan, Kazakstan,Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. Caspian Oil and Gas complements other IEA studies of major supply regions, such as Middle East Oil and Gas and North African Oil and Gas. It also expands on other IEA studies of the area, including Energy Policies of the Russian Federation and Energy Policies of Ukraine. The study was undertaken with the co-operation of the Energy Charter Secretariat, for which I would like to thank its Secretary General, Mr. Peter Schütterle. Robert Priddle Executive Director 5 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The IEA wishes to acknowledge the very helpful co-operation of the Energy Charter Secretariat, with special thanks to Marat Malataev, Temuri Japaridze, Khamidulah Shamsiev and Galina Romanova.
  • 12. the Oil-Igarchy

    12. the Oil-Igarchy

    151 12. The Oil-igarchy “Competition is a sin.” - John D. Rockefeller From farm to pharmaceutical, diesel truck to dinner plate, pipeline to plastic products, it is impossible to think of an area of our modern day lives that is not affected by the petrochemical industry. The story of oil, is the story of the modern world. Parts of that story are well known, Rockefeller and Standard Oil, the internal combustion engine and the transformation of global transport, the house of Saudi, and the oil wars in the Middle East. Other parts are more obscure, the quest for oil and the outbreak of World War I, the petrochemical interests behind modern medicine, the big oil money behind the green revolution. But that story, properly told, begins somewhere unexpected, not in Pennsylvania, with the first commercial drilling operation and the first oil boom. But in the rural backwoods of the early 19th century New York state. And it doesn't start with crude oil or its other derivatives, but a different product altogether...snake oil. Dr. Bill Livingston, celebrated cancer specialist was the very image of the traveling snake oil salesman. He was neither a doctor nor a cancer specialist. His real name was not even Livingston. More to the point, the rock oil tonic he pawned was a useless mixture of laxative and petroleum. And had no effect whatsoever on the cancer of the poor townsfolk he conned into buying it. He lived the life of a vagabond, always on the run from the last group of people he had fooled.

Cordesman, Bryan Gold, Sam Khazai, and Bradley Bosserman April 19, 2013 Anthony H. Cordesman Arleigh A. Burke Chair in Strategy [email protected] Note: This report is will be updated. Please provide comments and suggestions to [email protected] Iran V: Sanctions Competition April, 19 2013 I Executive Summary This report analyzes four key aspects of US and Iranian strategic competition - sanctions, energy, arms control, and regime change. Its primary focus is on the ways in which the sanctions applied to Iran have changed US and Iranian competition since the fall of 2011. This escalation has been spurred by the creation of a series of far stronger US unilateral sanctions and the EU‘s imposition of equally strong sanctions – both of which affect Iran‘s ability to export, its financial system and its overall economy. It has been spurred by Iran‘s ongoing missile deployments and nuclear program, as reported in sources like the November 2011 IAEA report that highlights the probable military dimensions of Iran‘s nuclear program. And, by Iranian rhetoric, by Iranian threats to ―close‖ the Gulf to oil traffic; increased support of the Quds Force and pro-Shiite governments and non-state actors; and by incidents like the Iranian-sponsored assassination plot against the Saudi Ambassador to the US, an Iranian government instigated mob attack on the British Embassy in Tehran on November 30, 2011, and the Iranian-linked attacks against Israeli diplomats.
