The Organization of the Oil Industry, Past and Present explains the
various shifts in the balance of power between a group of large
international vertically integrated firms (the Seven Sisters), and
a group of oil producing countries (OPEC) in the fight for control
over global oil markets. The article focuses on elements related to
the extraction of petroleum, and the interactions between buyers
and sellers of crude oil, as well as issues that are essentially
linked to the Industrial Organization of crude oil markets. The
Organization of the Oil Industry, Past and Present is organized as
follows. After a brief introduction, Section 2 discusses the
production of crude oil. Section 3 sheds light on the objectionable
practices of John D. Rockefeller in his pursuit of control of the
early petroleum refining industry. Section 4 discusses the problem
known as the "rule of capture," as it relates to the excessive
extraction of crude oil in the early days of the industry. Section
5 explains the tension and power shifts between the Seven Sisters
and OPEC. Section 6 provides a conceptual discussion of cartel
behavior that investigates the role played by reserves as a basis
for Section 7, which empirically analyzes this conceptual result.
Section 8 concludes the monograph by considering the impacts of
recent events on the future of the oil industry.
