| Project Title: | China’s Pursuit of Energy Security through Diplomacy |
| Investigator(s): | Hu RW |
| Department: | Politics & Public Administration |
| Source(s) of Funding: | Small Project Funding |

| Abstract: |
| This study proposes to examine how Beijing uses diplomacy to pursue its energy security and what implications this energy-related diplomacy has for international politics. Pursuing energy security has become a high priority goal in China’s foreign policy. To maintain rapid economic growth and social stability, Chinese leaders are increasingly concerned with the growing dependence of foreign oil imports. China’s drive for economic growth and social development necessitates an increasingly skillful management of its energy-related diplomacy. China’s energy security is a multi-faceted problem. China’s rapid economic growth, expansion of urbanization, and a booming private car ownership all have led to a precipitous jump in China’s consumption of gasoline and natural gas. Twenty years ago, China was East Asia’s largest oil exporter, but since 1993 it has been a net importer of oil. In 2004 China was the third largest oil importer in the world, and it accounted for 31% of global growth in oil demand. Virtually all predictions, Chinese and international, point to a growing pace of Chinese reliance on offshore sources of oil and natural gas. There is little evidence to suggest that this dramatic energy demand will decline soon. Since the 1980s China has become the world’s largest “manufacturing center,” and has flooded the world households with consumer products “Made in China.” To run its factories and to deliver processed goods overseas, the Chinese industry needs a secure energy supply and a larger share of the world total supply. For instance, China’s combined share of world consumption of aluminum, copper, nickel and iron ore doubled from 1990 (7%) to 2000 (15%), is now about 20% and is likely to double again by the end of this decade. For oil consumption, China was well behind many industrialized countries fifteen years ago, and now is no.2 oil consumer in the world, just after the United States. It is true coal continues to serve as the bulk of China’s energy consumption, and China itself is the world largest coal producer. However, the high frequency of coal mining accidents in recent years tarnishes China’s international image. With the UN Kyoto Protocol on climate change entering into force this year, the Chinese government has to face increasing international scrutiny in terms of living up to its share of contributions, and to turn to more clear energy sources other than coal. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, China imported 122.72 million tons of crude oil in 2004, a 34.8 % increase over the previous year. Minus a small amount of oil export each other, China’s net oil import dependence is now close to 40%. Import dependence has manifested itself as an economic and foreign policy challenge for Beijing. First, Chinese energy companies have a short history of “power playing” in the upstream of the international oil/gas industry chain. Comparing with Western oil giants, Chinese oil companies are later comer or freshmen in acquiring drilling concessions in other parts of the world. Yet the energy hunger reinforces the sense of urgency for the Chinese companies to more aggressively pursue access to offshore deposits of oil/gas. CNOOC China National Offshore Oil Corporation's (CNOOC) recent setback in its USD 18.5-billion bid to buy US oil company Unocal is a good case at issue. Second, in exploring gas reserves in the seabed of the East China Sea, Beijing has run into additional difficulties in its political diplomacy with Tokyo, a neighbor that is competing for influence in the entire East Asian region. How the dispute eventually gets resolved potentially has a demonstration effect on how Southeast Asian countries react to China over the exploration of oil and gas in the South China Sea. Therefore, energy has entered a forefront of China’s management of its disputed territorial waters with all its East Asian neighbors. Third, China has demonstrated its interest if not resolve in obtaining access to oil and other vital resources in countries as far away as Gabon and Sudan in Africa, Iran in the Middle East, Kazakhstan in Central Asia, and Venezuela in South America. Chinese diplomats conduct a shuttle diplomacy in the Middle East to promote a peaceful resolution of the Israeli-Arab conflict. High profile visits by Chinese leaders to these and other countries have aroused media commentaries in the United States that China and the U.S. are set to go down a geo-strategic collision course resulting from China’s efforts to satisfy its appetite for energy and mineral resources to fuel its economic growth. Russia under Putin is demonstrating that calculations of its own national interest outweigh its declaration of building a strategic partnership with China. The repeated indecision in Russian design of an oil pipeline out of the Russian Far East, presents China with a tremendous challenge in managing its oil supply security. Therefore, China’s pursuit of energy security has strategic implications that can go far beyond the vicinities of Chinese power. It is therefore time to fill in an academic void in systematically analyzing the role diplomacy plays in China’s pursuit of energy security on the world stage. The key questions I seek to address include but not limit to the following: (1) How did China pursue its energy-related diplomacy from the 1950s to the early 1990s? Since China became dependent on imported oil after mid-1990s, what has the Chinese government done to ensure its access to foreign sources of energy? (2) In what ways has China’s import dependence changed Chinese security perceptions of the outside world, especially those of major powers and oil-supplying regions in world politics? As China becomes more dependent on Middle East oil, it is increasingly concerned with sea-lanes of communication (SLOCs), in particular the flow of oil tankers through the Straits of Malacca and the Taiwan Straits. Does that mean the PLA must develop blue-naval capabilities to meet possible threats in the high sea? (3) To what extent has energy security affected the process of China’s foreign policy decision-making? To maximize the government-business nexus and increase coordination between foreign policy and energy needs, national oil corporate leaders accompany state leaders during their overseas trips. The energy-related ministries and large national corporations responsible for energy supply are gaining influence in foreign policy-making. This study attempts to explain why and how. (4) Last but not least, what implications does pursuit of energy security have on theorizing research on China’s diplomacy in the 21st century? |
