High prices induced production from unconventional sources, including Alaska, Gulf of Mexico, and North Sea. 2003 to 2014: Demand-driven cycle with no disruption in the global economy (during the spike) or boost to the global economy (during the collapse). High prices induced production from unconventional sources, including US shale, Canadian oil sands, and biofuels. 60 1972-2018 average: $56/bbl 30 0 1972 1976 1980 1984 1988 1992 1996 2000 2004 2008 2012 2016 Source: World Bank.

OPEC today POWER: It It is is less less powerful compared to to the the 1970s. It It asked for for assistance from key key non-opec producers to to make the the cuts effective. COHERENCE: It It appears to to be be less less coherent compared to to the the past because of: of: (i) (i) political fractions within and (ii) (ii) some members cannot afford supply cuts. COMPETITION: Commodity agreements have a a poor record. They are are successful initially, but but non-members gain market share and eventually become efficient suppliers. A A case in in point is is the the U.S. shale oil oil industry, now acting as as a a counterweight to to OPEC. A A historical example is is the the International Coffee Agreement. SUBSTITUTION: Agreement-induced supply cuts make substitute (natural or or synthetic) products more competitive. A A historical example is is the the International Tin Tin Agreement whose supply cuts made aluminum competitive.
