Publisher's Synopsis
Oil policy in Europe has traditionally focused mainly on the issue of energy security and supply. But in the 1990s, many aspects have become more pressing: the impact of European legislation toward a Single Energy Market; the transformation of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union; varied environmental pressures; and broader aspects of external relations and changing structures in the international oil market.;This book explores the implications of these changes on the policy issues that must be addressed regarding the production, refining, distribution, and marketing of oil in Europe.;John V. Mitchell, chairman of the Energy and Environmental Programme, was a special adviser to the managing directors of British Petroleum.
