Summary

The world is witnessing a triangular race between the USA, China and India to secure their future energy supplies, as global energy needs rise inexorably and petroleum production struggles to keep pace. China is aggressively seeking new supplies to fuel its phenomenal growth and may soon overtake the USA as the world¿s largest energy consumer and oil importer. Meanwhile, India¿s dramatic economic develo pment is underscoring its own heavy dependence on energy imports. What are the international implications of this triangular race for energy supplies? How will oil geopolitics and energy security considerations shape the foreign policies of these three global players? How can the Gulf countries respond to the energy needs of whilst performing a delicate balancing act in this critical supply scenario? This volume offers global, regional and country perspectives from energy experts on the international race for energy resources and its wider economic and political ramifications.
