Abstract
The process of oil and natural gas extraction is one of the most technically complex processes in the modern industry. Offshore platforms, special drill ships and mobile oil plants are the only ways of extracting oil from the seabed. The paper will highlight the role of oil in the maritime economy and the importance of the logistic chain on the example of Norway. It will provide a theoretical overview of the role of oil exploration through the logistic system, oil stock analysis, export and import analysis of oil quantities through world regions by the model and calculation of direct growth rates of selected variables. In this paper, methods of analysis and synthesis, inductive and deductive methods, comparative methods and growth matrix methods have been used.
Highlights
Oil covers over 40% of the world’s energy needs
The paper will highlight the role of oil in the maritime economy and the importance of the logistic chain on the example of Norway
Based on the above mentioned, it is obvious that maritime economy logistics is one of the fundamental factors of the efficiency of the maritime-economic system
Summary
Oil covers over 40% of the world’s energy needs It appeared more than 300 million years ago and is today an indispensable fuel in industry and other human activities. Logistics as a science represents multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary knowledge that studies and applies the process of planning, organizing, managing and controlling flows of materials, persons, energy and information in systems [3]. It tries to find out methods of optimizing these flows in order to achieve the economic effect (profit). In order to be as good and safe as possible for sustainable development, the exploration of the sea and the seabed, as well as of the mineral resources – oil, gas, coal, sand, ore, salt, copper and other valuable resources - must be designed and developed through logistic activities
