Rezensionen

'A green transition may be underway, but for decades to come oil will remain critical to energy security and geopolitics. From America to China, Dietl deftly unpacks the complexities of a modern era of pipeline politics.'

Luke Patey, Danish Institute for International Studies, Denmark and Oxford Institute for Energy Studies, UK

'Dietl has done it again - analyzed global oil pipeline politics with disarming ruthlessness, delightful sarcasm, diligent attention to detail, all these peppered with droll and insightful quotes from the doyens of the oil industry. Industry insiders will get new nuggets from this book while for the uninitiated, this book offers a crash course on the vice-like stranglehold of oil pipelines on the global economy.'

Sudha Mahalingam, independent energy consultant and former energy regulator, India
