太平洋能源发展的趋势一般是与世界能源的模式相一致的。但是,由于能源资源分布的不平衡和国与国之间能源需求的广泛多样性,能源发展和能源贸易可以分为两类地区。东太平洋周围地带相对来说是“多油”地区,该地区总的资源基础是与地区的市场相适应的。而西太平洋地带相对来说是“少油”地区,该地区能源分布的不平衡将鼓励增加能源丰富的南 Pacific energy development trend is generally consistent with the world’s energy model. However, due to the imbalance in the distribution of energy resources and the wide diversity of energy needs between countries, energy development and energy trade can be divided into two categories. The area around the eastern Pacific is relatively “oil-rich” and the overall resource base in the region is adapted to the markets in the region. While the western Pacific is relatively “oil-less” region, the uneven energy distribution in the region will encourage the increase of energy-rich south
