This book provides a framework for analyzing and forecasting a
variety of mineral and energy markets and related industries. Such
modeling activity has been at the forefront of the economic and
engineering professions for some time, having received a major
stimulus fC?llowing the first oil price shock in 1973. Since that
time, other shocks have affected these markets and industries,
causing disequilibrium economic adjustments which are difficult to
analyze and to predict. Moreover, geopolitics remains an important
factor which can destabilize crude oil markets and associated
refining industries. Mineral and energy modeling, consequently, has
become a major interest of energy-related corporations, mining and
drilling companies, metal manufacturers, public utilities,
investment banks,. national government agencies and international
organizations. This book hopes to advance mineral and energy
modeling as follows: (1) The modeling process is presented
sequentially by leading the model builder from model specification,
estimation, simulation, and validation to practical model
applications, including explaining history, analyzing policy, and
market and price forecasting; (2) New developments in modeling
approaches are presented which encompass econometric market and
industry models, spatial equilibrium and programming models,
optimal resource depletion models, input-output models, economic
sector models, and macro oriented energy interaction models
(including computable general equilibrium); (3) The verification
and application of the models is considered not only individually
but also in relation to the performance of alternative modeling
approaches; and (4) The modeling framework includes a perspective
on new directions, so that the present model building advice will
extend into the future.
