This article analyzes the impact of oil price on economic development in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq from 1997-2019. It finds that oil price and oil production value have a statistically significant positive relationship with GDP. As the Kurdistan Region relies heavily on oil exports, changes in international oil prices can significantly impact economic growth. The findings suggest economic development in the region is strongly influenced by factors affecting oil prices and production levels. The article concludes more efforts are needed to utilize other resources besides oil revenues to increase income and stabilize the economy.

Kurdistan region of Iraq represents a good case study to examine the effect of oil price, because most of its earning dependence on exporting crude oil. Kurdistan region of Iraq is one of the major oil exporting countries. Generally, the national income depends on crude oil. Oil revenue in Kurdistan region of Iraq covers 90 percent of Kurdistan region of Iraqi government’s budget and also Kurdistan region of Iraqi economy could be effect by would economic during economic problems. Thus, increasing oil crude oil price can effect on economic growth in Kurdistan region of Iraq. So it is crucial to use other resource instead of oil revenue as a new strategy to gain national revenue. The main objective of this study is to examine the effects of oil price and oil production value on economic growth. Annual growth rate, compound growth rate and correlation coefficient can be used to estimate of the data. The data is annual data which were converting a period of 21 years from 1995-2017. As a result, Economic growth is one of the most important sources of economic transformation because it reflects the community's ability to increase productive capacity and optimal investment and also sustainability requirement includes a diversified economy on the face of shocks, dynamically adopts technology and head accumulation human money, competitively can gain relative advantages compared to the other. Thus, it operates within stable, stable economic policies and economic development and there were positively statistically significance between oil price and GDP, oil production value and GDP.

What the drop in oil prices means for the economy and office marketsJLL
Oil prices are below $65 per barrel for the first time since 2009, and energy producers across the globe are starting to panic. Lower prices will likely extend into 2015—bad news for energy companies and the downstream industries that support them, but good news for the U.S. economy and consumers.
We expect demand for real estate in the energy markets to weaken. Landlords and developers will feel pressure to secure and retain occupancy. But, the benefit of sustained low oil prices will fuel (pun intended) retail, residential, industrial and office demand across the United States overall.

The oil industry, with its history of booms and busts, is in its deepest downturn since the 1990s, if not earlier.
Earnings are down for companies that made record profits in recent years, leading them to decommission more than two-thirds of their rigs and sharply cut investment in exploration and production. Scores of companies have gone bankrupt and an estimated 250,000 oil workers have lost their jobs.
The cause is the plunging price of a barrel of oil, which has fallen more than 70 percent since June 2014.
Prices recovered a few times last year, but a barrel of oil has already sunk this year to its lowest level since 2004. Executives think it will be years before oil returns to $90 or $100 a barrel, a price that was pretty much the norm over the last decade.
Brent crude, the main international benchmark, was trading at around $29.64 ( 21st February 2016) a barrel on Saturday.
United States production has surged in recent years as the shale boom took off. That has helped create a glut of oil as major producers like Saudi Arabia continue to pump at high levels.
EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook (Q4, October 2020)EY
Oil and gas prices have recovered steadily from their lows and are relatively stable, but that stability is supported by the combination of purposeful withholding of production by oil-producing countries and economic stress on upstream independents. Oil prices closed the quarter roughly where they started it, while refining spreads were down slightly. LNG spreads were substantially higher at the end of Q3 than they were at the beginning of the quarter but are still roughly half of what is generally thought of as sustainable.
Going forward, the market will be looking closely at how the economy and demand respond to new developments with respect to a potential COVID-19 vaccine and the US election.
EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook, Q319EY
The theme for this quarter is consistency: in the significant trends impacting prices, at least. The forces that impacted oil prices in the second quarter were the same as those that have impacted prices quarter after quarter for the past several years. Surging North American production counterbalanced by OPEC+ production cuts has kept prices in a fairly narrow range. The market has become remarkably resilient. For some time now, long-dated oil futures have traded at a price very close to the market’s view of the break-even price of unconventional oil in North America.

EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlookEY
As we close the second quarter of 2020, in most of Europe and Asia, the first (and hopefully last) wave of the COVID-19 crisis appears to be abating. In the parts of the US where the virus hit early, the profile has largely matched Europe’s, while in other parts, the urge to reopen businesses has trumped the desire to contain the virus and uncertainty looms. In the developing world, the crisis has just begun, but without the economic headroom and resources necessary to contain it. As the crisis unfolded, the effect on oil and gas demand has been predictable but difficult to gauge precisely and therefore difficult to manage.
Oil prices have crept up steadily as production has been curtailed through coordinated action (OPEC+) and because of economic reality (unconventional oil in North America). That trend has been subject to momentary spasms when bad news hit the market. It would be understandable if traders were nervous, and it seems that they are. Although nowhere near where it was at the peak of the crisis, option implied volatility is still at historically high levels. Gas markets, without the benefit of coordination on the supply side, continue to deal with the market implications of storage at or near capacity. Interfuel competition in power generation has always provided something of a floor, but those lows have been, and will continue to be, tested.
EY Price Point: global oil and gas market outlook, Q2 April 2021EY
The theme for this quarter is governed. Apparent market balance at prices that could be sustainable is the product of calculated choices by market leaders and the cooperation of those who follow them. Economics played their customary role as well, with capital scarcity in North America taking about 2 million barrels per day out of the market, about half of the remaining gap in demand. While inventories are close to their pre-COVID-19 levels, there is still uncertainty. The resolution of the pandemic is in sight, but timing is unclear. Vaccine distribution in the US is having an impact but Europe is struggling to contain a third wave of infections. The taps have opened on economic stimulus, but it remains to be seen if policymakers have done enough or if they have overshot the mark.
The shape of the crude oil forward curve has fundamentally changed since the end of the last quarter. In late December of last year, the Brent forward curve was gradually increasing while today, the curve is backwardated. This is a clear sign that the market sees a short-term dynamic that is disconnected from the medium-to-long-term fundamentals. The lasting impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains to be seen. While many have opined that COVID-19 marks a turning point in energy transition, the IEA recently released a five-year forecast of oil demand that shows steady growth, albeit at rates that are below historical expectations.
Gas markets are a paradox. At the Henry Hub and at LNG destinations, demand grows, investment lags and prices will occasionally attract attention. Traders, so far though, are unconvinced and futures prices don’t indicate imminent scarcity at any link in the value chain.

The main objective of this study is to determine the impact of oil price volatility on macroeconomic variables and sustainable development in Nigeria. The significant role of oil in the Nigerian economy cannot be overestimated. Though there are studies by other researchers on oil prices and macroeconomic variables, their findings are contentious and country-specific. Our literature review and methodology shade lights on these positions. We used secondary time series data in a vector auto regression analysis. We found that fluctuations in oil prices do substantially affect the real GDP, exchange rates, Unemployment, Balance of payments and interest rates in Nigeria. Negative shocks in the international oil market, have significant impact on price fluctuations. Due to increased imports in the Nigerian economy, inflationary pressures are inevitable and are pronounced. Government revenues and expenditures have decreased significantly. We recommend diversification of the economy and energy sources for sustainable development in Nigeria.

Oil, a very versatile and flexible non-productive, depleting, natural (hydrocarbon) resource is a fundamental input to modern economic activities providing about 50 percent of the total energy demanded in the world apart from the former centrally planned economy. The countries dealing with oil exploiting in the world depend heavily on oil revenue for foreign exchange earnings and for the government budget, in most cases, reaching 90 percent or above. Few studies have been carried out in this regard yet there is no conclusion as to the key factors that determine economic growth. This study determines the influence of Oil revenue on economic growth of Nigeria. The study uses domestic consumption and export as proxies for Oil revenue, and represents economic growth with real gross domestic product. Using 33 years time series observations, the study used Ordinary least square method. The study covers the period from 1980 to 2013. Secondary data source was acquired from the central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Statistical bulletin. The study found that both domestic consumption and export has positive and significant influence on economic growth of Nigeria. The study recommends that, the domestic consumption and crude oil export sales should be increased in order to have the gross domestic product increased as this will put the country on a better scale. But this will have to be done by balancing the domestic consumption with the export of oil.
This study assesses the effect of world oil price shocks on Uganda’s official development assis-tance using Structural Vector Autoregressive Model (SVAR). The results in this study show in-significant pass-through effect of world oil price shocks to Uganda’s Official Development As-sistance received in the period under the study. The policy implication in this study is that Offi-cial Development Assistance received by Uganda is independent of world oil price shocks.

Impact Analysis of Petroluem Product Price Changes on Households’ Welfare in ...inventionjournals
This paper examines the impact of petroleum products price changes on household welfare in Zaria metropolis of Kaduna state. Respondents communities were stratified selected base on their geographical locations. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics tools were employed and use for data analysis. Descriptive statistics was used to analyze socio economic characteristics of household head and to determine the price changes of petroleum products on households. while inferential statistical tools was employed to specifically show how price changes of petroleum products affect the household through increase in prices of petroleum products which causes decrease in demand for the products, and also have multiplier effect on goods and services. On the other hand, decrease in prices of petroleum products also increase the demand for the products in Zaria metropolis. To achieved this objective, non parametric chi-square test was employed. The results shows that, the three petroleum products that is, petrol (PMS), gas (LPG) and kerosene (DPK) of the study have an impact on household welfare. This indicated that increase in the petroleum products price changes causes decrease in demand of the products, while on the other hand the decrease of the petroleum products prices causes increase in demand for the products which was in conformity with the demand theory that was adopted in this study. The study also recommends, government should deregulate the downstream petroleum sector to allow for increase participation and competition which will alternatively result in reducing prices of petroleum products Moreover, emphasis on alternative sources of energy such as gas, solar, wind and hydraulic sources should put into consideration. Government should expanded consumption capacity effect which will translate to increased demand for varied consumer good and hence increased sales and profitability of a number of Nigerians
This paper examines the relationship between Saudi oil revenues and the Kingdom’s economic growth over the past 47 years. In analyzing the data that are needed for this analysis, problems were encountered with the basic real GDP and government oil revenue data that are typically used. The most widely-used measure of non-oil private sector activity that is available, the Non-Oil Private Institutional Sector GDP, does not include the Gross Value Added of all of the private activities, omitting over SAR 80 billion of real activity (in 2010 prices). A new series was constructed, consisting of all of the non-oil private activities, including the recently corporatized/privatized companies. In addition, the oil revenue data prior to 1987 were found to be unsatisfactory for use as published, due to their being based on the 354-355 day Hijra calendar. A new conversion methodology, based on a recently published paper by Qualls et al. (2017), was applied, and the pre-1987 data were converted to a consistent Gregorian basis with good results. The two series were determined to have a unit root of order one, with a highly significant long-run relationship. An error-correction model was then estimated, and highly significant short- and long-run relationships were found. A Ganger Causality test was performed, with the results confirming the ECM’s results, with real government oil revenue growth “Granger-causing” real private-sector GDP growth. Finally, the new non-oil activity GDP measure produced better results than did the traditionally-used Non-Oil Private Sector GDP.
Despite credit market turbulence and slowing activity in many major advanced economies, oil prices have been reaching record highs in recent months. Besides oil-specific factors, such as geopolitical risks and speculations, the current price boom is driven by demand and supply forces that reinforce each other amid supportive financial conditions. This paper aims to a link macroeconomic variables together with oil prices in order to provide complement decision tools used by commercial and investment banks when optimizing their investment portfolios. For that reason, we apply financial programming model with incorporated oil price variable. We show that oil prices affect private consumption, gross domestic product, inflation, and imports. On the other hand, we also investigate effects of macroeconomic variables on oil market equilibrium. A decrease in oil supply as well as depreciation of the US$ lead to higher oil prices, which in turn decrease private consumption and output, but as well stimulate inflationary pressures. Empirical test is performed on the basis of quarterly US data from 2001 to 2007. Although financial programming models are subject to limitations and empirical implications are difficult to apply, some general relations between selected macroeconomic variables and oil price can be determined.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.
