Comment on "Optimal Oil Producer Behavior Considering Macrofeedbacks"

Knut Anton Mork

The Energy Journal, 1983, vol. Volume 4, issue Number 4, 29-36

Abstract: Harry Saunders's paper on the above subject in this issue of the Journal raises a very interesting point. As is well known, oil-exporting countries now hold major assets in the Western economies. Furthermore, the sensitivity of these economies to abrupt changes in oil prices seems widely accepted. It then seems reasonable to expect oil exporters' pricing decisions to be influenced by concerns about the rate of return on their assets. In particular, Saunders argues that oil exporters would want to avoid abrupt price changes because the ensuing shock effects would tend to reduce the rate of return on capital.
