Introduction - issue 100

Abstract:
This is the one hundredth issue of the Oxford Energy Forum, a quarterly publication that Robert Mabro started back in 1990 to stimulate debate on the key drivers shaping energy markets and energy policies. This special issue is dedicated to Robert Mabro who founded the Oxford Energy Policy Club in 1976, the Oxford Energy Seminar in 1979, and the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies in 1982. The fact that these institutions still thrive today is testament to his strong leadership, deep vision, sheer determination, great intellectual ability and, not least, his extraordinary bonhomie. Over the last 50 years, Robert’s many insightful books, articles, and papers have enriched our understanding of energy markets, the behaviour of the various players, the dynamics within OPEC, and the interaction between governments and oil companies. With his writing and through the various institutions he created, he has persistently tried to bring producers and consumers closer together, despite his recognition of the challenges involved and the wide divergence of interests. In this issue, some of Robert’s many colleagues and friends reflect on the man and his work: the diplomat, the interlocutor, the friend, and above all, the generous intellectual and thinker whose deep insights and intellectual integrity keep shaping and influencing our ideas in so many ways.
