The battle for Asia in crude oil markets: an easier road ahead for India? by Sen, A

“…Even though the drop in prices is unlikely to last (given the high cost on the supply side) and prices are likely to pick back up to at least the US$80–100 per barrel range in the coming years, India will remain in a privileged position compared to a few years ago, as the continued growth of US tight oil means producers from all around the world will still focus on Asia to sell their crude. …”
