The Institute of Energy Economics, Japan is engaged in the studies of almost all the energy problems in Japan and in the world. Since the establishment of the Institute, the world demand and supply situation and price trend of oil have been the most important theme of our studies. In order to carry out them, we execute analysis on energy and oil demand-supply situations in USA and in European countries, as well as in developing countries and in east European countries.
On the other hand, we perform analytical studies putting stress on politics and economics of oil producing countries mainly in the Middle-East, on behavior of Oil Majors, and on energy policies and supply-demand situations in pacific basin area.
Japan's energy supply-demand forecast is an other theme as important as the international oil demand-supply and price trend. The credibility of our forecasts enhance the international reputation of the Institute. As a consequence, we have received many visitors who want to obtain our forecasts, from either developed or developing countries, energy importing of exporting countries, namely from all over the world.
Looking at by energies, oil products demand and supply forecast for domestic market is one of the most important tasks of the Institute. We made the forecast of oil products demand and supply taking into consideration of the tendency of produced crude oil which becomes heavier, and the tendency of required oil products which becomes lighter, and the tendency of increasing import of oil products from abroad especially from oil producing countries.
Based on the forecast, we have also proposed what measures should the oil industry take.
The Institute, of course, engages in the studies of conventional energies alternative to oil such as LNG, nuclear and coal, and also in so-called new energies such as synthetic fuel and renewable energy.
The Institute's research activities and its results are utilized in the planning of Japanese Government's energy policy. The contribution is not only in the form of the research financed by the governmental funds, but also through the activity in various councils settled for the discussion of the policy.
It is well known that successive chairman and presidents played leading roles in the abovementioned councils and committees.
