Abstract. Using the COMTRADE database [1] we apply the reduced Google matrix (RE- GOMAX) algorithm to analyze the multiproduct trade in years 2004-2016. Our approach allows to determine the trade balance sensitivity of a group of to a specific product price increase from a specific exporting taking into account all direct and indirect trade pathways via all world countries exchanging 61 UN COMTRADE identified trade products. On the basis of this approach we present the influence of trade in petroleum and gas products from , USA, and determin- ing the sensitivity of each EU country. We show that the REGOMAX approach provides a new and more detailed analysis of trade influence propagation comparing to the usual approach based on export and import flows.

In global we see that EU countries are more sensitive to US petro- leum that is by a factor 2-3 stronger comparing to those of RU.

3.4 Sensitivity of EU to gas price

^ We present in Fig.7 EU trade balance sensitivity to gas from RU and Norway (NO) in 2016. EU sensitivities to RU gas is one order of magnitude weaker for gas than pe- troleum. The price increase of the RU gas mainly affects Italy (IT) while other Western EU countries being rela- tively not sensitive. Again RU neighboring countries are the most sensitives to RU gas import. The most sensitive EU economies to Norwegian gas are DE economy (and to a lesser extent GB and BE economies) which would be affected by NO gas price increase and SE economy which would benefit from it. The positive balance trade sensitiv- ity for SE is certainly due to the entanglement of NO-SE economies. The others economies are insensitive to NO gas (see peak of fourteen EU countries with balance trade around 0 in Fig.7 right panel). Fig. 5. EU countries balance derivative dBc/dδ induced by Figs.8 and9 show from 2004 to 2016 time evolution an increase of petroleum price from Russia, Saudi Arabia, and of EU economies trade balance sensitivity to RU and NO in 2016.
