Founded in 1990 by His Excellency Sheikh Ahmed Zaki Yamani the Centre for Global Energy Studies (CGES) is a non-profit think tank, specialising in oil market analysis and forecasting, and the economics and politics of energy.

As energy analysts our task is to understand a complex reality, to simplify a confusing picture, to deconstruct the energy market into its constituent parts and reassemble them in such a way as to form a coherent narrative.

The CGES is known for its well-researched, in-depth studies and reports on oil and gas issues. Our expertise lies in:

• Oil demand, supply and price movements and forecasts
• The futures market
• OPEC policy
• Geopolitics of the Middle East, the FSU, Africa and other oil and gas producing regions

We offer advice and consultancy, publish oil market reports and hold regular energy-related events.

By visiting this site we hope you will benefit from our free energy articles, publications, reports and presentations.
