Determinants of import demand for non-renewable energy (petroleum) products: Empirical evidence from Nigeria

Author

Listed:
  • Adewuyi, Adeolu O.

Abstract

This study estimated determinants of import demand for refined petroleum products in Nigeria for the period 1984–2013. It employed the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bounds test cointegration method and analysed both long-run and short-run determinants of import demand for total and specific petroleum products.
