This Seminar is part of the EDRC Outreach Programme. Experts from the OECD Economics Department, the EBRD and independent academics discuss the scope for improving policies concerning oil exploration, production and transportation in the CIS. While production and reserves are small relative to OPEC they make a big contribution to covering the soaring demand from emerging economies and the United States.
