Summary:

In the 1990s, a considerable number of countries of the region embarked on substantial changes in their regulations governing the oil industry, with the aim of doing away with public monopolies, promoting competitive markets, and encouraging increased private investment under new forms of contracts. These reforms had a considerable impact on the economic stabilization programmes, since they involved price corrections which helped to reduce fiscal pressures, as well as leading to the restructuring and financial reorganization of public oil companies.
