Abstract

Naftna industrija je ključni sektor globalne ekonomije, bitan za opskrbu energijom, industrijski razvoj i geopolitičke odnose. Naftna transportna mreža nije samo tehnički sustav, već vitalna komponenta globalnog gospodarstva, koja se suočava s nizom izazova kao što su tehnološki napredak, održivost i geopolitičke promjene. Ova kompleksna infrastruktura koristi se za dostavu nafte krajnjim potrošačima, a uključuje cjevovode, tankere, kopnene prijevozne sustave i specijaliziranu prekrcajnu mehanizaciju. Cjevovodi su ključni za dugotrajni i učinkoviti prijevoz nafte na velike udaljenosti, dok se tankeri koriste za globalnu distribuciju. Kopneni prijevoz, poput kamiona i željeznice, omogućuje fleksibilnost i dostavu na lokalnoj razini. Sektor naftne industrije izrazito je važan za globalno gospodarstvo i bitan je utjecaj na geopolitičke procese. Nafta, kao današnji ključni izvor energije, predstavlja vitalni resurs za zemlje diljem svijeta. Međunarodne trgovinske rute za naftu često oblikuju ekonomske i političke odnose među zemljama, dok zavisnost različitih regija o uvozu ili izvozu nafte može utjecati na globalnu ravnotežu snaga. Distribucija nafte u Republici Hrvatskoj oslanja se na ključnu ulogu Jadranskog naftovoda (JANAF), koji predstavlja glavnu transportnu infrastrukturu za naftu u zemlji. Osim cjevovoda, nafta se distribuira i putem kamiona i željeznice, omogućujući fleksibilnost u dostavi na različite lokacije. Prelazak na obnovljive izvore energije i trenutni trendovi u industriji mijenjaju tradicionalne naftne robne tokove, što otežava precizno predviđanje njihove budućnosti.

Abstract (english)

The oil industry is a key sector of the global economy, essential for energy supply, industrial development, and geopolitical relations. The oil transportation network is not merely a technical system but a vital component of the global economy, facing various challenges such as technological advancements, sustainability, and geopolitical changes. This complex infrastructure is utilized for delivering oil to end consumers and encompasses pipelines, tankers, land transportation systems, and specialized loading mechanisms. Pipelines are crucial for long-distance and efficient oil transportation, while tankers are utilized for global distribution. Land transportation, including trucks and railways, offers flexibility and local-level delivery. The oil industry sector significantly influences global economic dynamics and geopolitical processes. Oil, as a primary source of energy today, is a vital resource for countries worldwide. International trade routes for oil often shape economic and political relations among nations, while dependence on oil imports or exports in different regions can affect the global balance of power. Oil distribution in the Republic of Croatia relies heavily on the key role of the Adriatic Pipeline (JANAF), serving as the primary oil transport infrastructure in the country. Besides pipelines, oil is distributed via trucks and railways, providing flexibility in delivery to various locations. The shift towards renewable energy sources and current trends in the industry are altering traditional oil commodity flows, making it challenging to precisely predict their future.
