Twilight in the Desert
The Coming Saudi Oil Shock and the World Economy
Book • 2004
In this book, Matthew Simmons draws on over three decades of insider experience and more than 200 independently produced reports about Saudi petroleum resources and production operations.
He uncovers a story about Saudi Arabia's troubled oil industry, political, and societal instability, which differs sharply from the globally accepted Saudi version.
The book examines the history of major oil fields to determine that Saudi Arabia is overproducing its primary resources and argues for transparency and energy data reform to cope with the impending oil crisis.
