Abstract

Oil remains the top resource for meeting global energy requirements, and is one of the most widely traded commodities. With different levels of petroleum production, exports and consumption, developments in the oil market have far-reaching and varied consequences across regions. Policymakers and analyst alike are interested in understanding the sources of price movements, and its implications for the economy. This paper evaluates the regional economic impacts of oil markets changes across the globe. Simulations are performed with the energy policy in general equilibrium (EPGE) model, a 19-region and 49-sector global dynamic economic model with a 2004 base year. The simulations evaluate a number of scenarios that include changes oil demand and supply, as well as other sources of shocks to the oil price. Results highlight economic impacts in terms of changes in the gross domestic product, sectoral outputs and prices, employment and other indicators of economic performance.
