Sažetak

Steep rise of oil prices in international market, which doubled in June 2008 in respect to the levels in early 2007, instigated interest for analyzing the reasons of such oil price movements. Many are not satisfied with an explanation about disbalance of supply and demand reflected in skyrocketing prices on mercantile exchanges as demand grows faster than supply. The latter fact supports arguments about imminent peak oil.
At the same time, Europe’s high dependence on oil and gas imports, controversies between the EU and Russia on some principles of energy cooperation, starting from the Energy Charter Treaty which has never been ratified in duma, lead to a lack of trust instead of energy cooperation. These issues motivated the author to present, in a 3-part study, the potentials of Russia and the Caspian region for the supply of oil and gas, primarily from the perspective of european infrastructure requirements necessary for the transit of oil and gas to Europe.
As for Russian potentials, some authors, being from Russia themselves, warn about stagnating production, particularly oil, but also natural gas. Consequently, these warnings should be taken into account.
