description | <p>Most analyses of oil supply and demand include a statement about the geopolitics of the Middle East and the possibility of supply disruption from the region. There is, therefore, an assumed political premium to the oil price.</p> <p>While it is true that the Middle East has been in a constant state of trouble and mayhem as far back as one can remember, and events since September 11 indicate that we are in for major confrontations and changes in the long haul, the fact of the matter is that the actual impact on the security of supply has been minimal. One can even venture to say that the conscious commitment to deliver the oil to world markets is stronger now than it has ever been.</p> |
