Simulating Liaoning petroleum resource consumption

According to the status of the crude oil consumption in Liaoning,petroleum resource consumption change and its controlling factors were analyzed with Environmental Kuznets Curve(EKC) and IPAT model.The results showed that petroleum resource consumption was still the high consumption level in the coming years in Liaoning.Moreover,petroleum resource degradation in Liaoning had been greatly driven by economic development,whereas technological advancement had mitigated crude oil consumption to some extent.However,the influence of population had very weak effects on oil resource degeneration.Coordinating both models would help more accurately exploring the scientific reasons of energy resources change,and provided the references to decision making as well.
