EFFICIENT USE OF A BARREL OF OIL - DEFINING AN INDEX
The development of an index, which measures the overall efficiency of crude oil for transportation, is described. The index relates some measurable demand variable such as available energy or vehicle- kilometres- travelled per unit of fuel to the input crude oil requirement. (TRRL)
