A Third Benefit of Joint Non-OPEC Carbon Taxes : Transferring OPEC Monopoly Rent

Dong, Yan - 2013

This paper highlights the potential for joint OECD (or non-OPEC) carbon taxes to reduce OPEC's monopoly rent and provide benefit to non-OPEC countries provided jointly agreed trigger strategies are adhered to. In traditional economic theory, the primary purpose of a carbon tax is to internalize...

Optimal Tariffs on Exhaustible Resources : The Case of a Quantity Setting Cartel

Fujiwara, Kenji - 2013

We formulate a dynamic game model of trade in an exhaustible resource with a quantity-setting cartel. We compute the … importing country, and leadership by the exporting cartel. We numerically show that as compared to the Nash equilibrium, both … players are better off if the importing country is the leader. The follower is worse off if the exporting cartel is the leader …

OPEC's Market Power : An Empirical Dominant Firm Model for the Oil Market

Golombek, Rolf; Irarrazabal, Alfonso; Ma, Lin - 2021

In this paper we estimate a dominant firm-competitive fringe model for the crude oil market using quarterly data on oil prices for the 1986-2009 period. All the estimated structural parameters have the expected sign and are significant at standard test levels. We find that OPEC exercised its...

An Empirical Growth Model for Major Oil Exporters

Esfahani, Hadi Salehi; Mohaddes, Kamiar; Pesaran, M. Hashem - 2021

This paper develops a long-run growth model for a major oil exporting economy and derives conditions under which oil revenues are likely to have a lasting impact. This approach contrasts with the standard literature on the 'Dutch disease' and the 'resource curse', which primarily focuses on...

Going Full Circle : Demand-Side Constraints to the Green Paradox

Di Maria, Corrado - 2013

We argue that the literature on the green paradox has largely ignored the demand side of the resource market, and that this side of the market may mitigate the size of an emissions increase in response to imperfect climate policies. These claims are informed by recent empirical findings. Our...

Climate Effects of Carbon Taxes, Taking into Account Possible Other Future Climate Measures

Habermacher, Florian - 2013

The increase of fuel extraction costs as well as of temperature will make it likely that in the medium-term future technological or political measures against global warming may be implemented. In assessments of a current climate policy the possibility of medium-term future developments like...

Short Run Effects of Bleaker Prospects for Oligopolistic Producers of a Non-Renewable Resource

Grimsrud, Kristine - 2014

In a non-renewable resource market with imperfect competition, both the resource rent and current prices influence a large resource owner's optimal supply. New information regarding future market conditions that affect the resource rent will consequently impact current supply. Bleaker demand...

Optimum Commodity Taxation with a Non-Renewable Resource

Daubanes, Julien - 2015

Under standard assumptions, optimum commodity taxation (OCT) should target non-renewable resources (NRRs) in priority. NRRs should be taxed at a higher rate than otherwise-identical conventional commodities. NRR substitutes and complements should receive a particular tax treatment. When reserves...

Dispatching after Producing : The Supply of Non-Renewable Resources

Daubanes, Julien - 2014

There exists no formal treatment of non-renewable resource (NRR) supply, systematically deriving quantity as function of price. We establish instantaneous restricted (fixed reserves) and unrestricted NRR supply functions. The supply of a NRR at any date and location not only depends on the local...
