Book excerpt: With the Arab Gulf States supplying the major proportion to Asian energy needs, Gulf-Asia links will emerge as a key factor in the global energy scenario. What are the economic and strategic implications of Asia's growing dependence on Gulf oil? How far can Asian countries counter such dependence by improving energy efficiency and developing new sources? What are the energy transitions that Asian nations are undergoing? This book seeks to address these questions and other issues relating to the Asian energy sector including supply security, consumption trends, privatization moves, energy diversification, energy self-sufficiency and foreign investment.
