Autorenporträt
Ian Rutledge is an economist and historian with a special interest in energy. He is Director of SERIS (Sheffield Energy & Resources Information Services) and an Honorary Senior Research Fellow in the University of Sheffield's Management School. After a period working in the coal industry, his subsequent research has embraced the corporate structure of the world gas industry, petroleum fiscal regimes, the development of the US oil economy, and UK energy policy. As well as publishing a large number of articles in academic journals, national newspapers, and the energy industry press, he is author of Addicted to Oil: America's Relentless Drive for Energy Security. Philip Wright is Honorary Professor of Energy Policy and Economics at the University of Sheffield, Fellow of the UK's Energy Institute and a Senior Research Advisor at the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies. Over more than two decades his research, publications, consultancy, and teaching have covered all energy industries and the companies which operate in them. As well as contributing a critical perspective on the liberalisation of gas and electricity industries, his recent work has also addressed the UK's oil and gas fiscal regime. His views and expertise have been sought by governmental organisations, major international companies, trade unions, and universities in Europe and Latin America. His book, Gas Prices in the UK: Markets and Insecurity of Supply, also published by OUP, pioneered understanding of the UK's gas market.
