Abstract

Traditional international trade theories have some limits in analyzing international crude oil trade as a system with numerous countries and complicated relationships. Complex network theory provides a method to analyze the world-wide trade system entirely and partly. Complex network models on direct relationships are fundamental analysis; we went further and established a new model based on indirect relationships.
