Abstract:

An analysis of China′s oil product market reveals that the oil product market is an imperfect competition market dominated by the twin oligarchies of CNPC and Sinopec with plural investment subjects.The authors believe that there won′t be any game in oil product yields and the price game between the twin oligarchies will drive them into prisoner′s dilemma.And a further study of other oil producers′ behavior shows that they do not have any advantages in yields and price.It is hoped these studies can offer some help in decision making process to oil product consumers.

Key words: oil product market, market structure, twin oligarchies, game theory, oil companies
