Early work focussed on the use of control theoretic methods for the design and analysis of economic policy. This included applications to monetary policy, the design
of development planning models, and the analysis of regulatory policies for individual markets. Later my work shifted to the economics of energy and natural resource markets, with a particular interest in the economics of resource exploration and the role of uncertainty.
Related to this was an econometric study of sectoral energy demands, an analysis of the world oil market and the behaviour of the Organisation of Petroleum Export Countries cartel, and studies of cartel pricing and cartel behaviour in general. I have also been interested in the relationship of energy markets to the macroeconomy, and the macroeconomic effects of sudden and drastic changes in energy prices. Finally, my most recent work has dealt with the analysis of capital investment decisions under various kinds of uncertainty, as well as the determinants of secular trends in the stock market.
