Strategic Analysis, The Sino-russian Oil Pipeline Cooperation

The cooperation of oil pipelines includes bilateral and multilateral talks and capital operation in early term, the mid-term building, the later operation management. Its research is very complicated, which involves not only international politics, but also international economy.The cooperation of Sino-Russian oil pipeline made some progress in 2009. It is necessary to develop such cooperation because, for China, it satisfies the need of oil and eases the oil tensions, and for Russia, it has become a step of the strategy of oil export diversification. Besides, it is possible to cooperate to build oil pipelines between China and Russia for china has great economic capability to invest in foreign countries and Russia excels in the management of oil pipelines in high latitudes. Moreover, the relation of Sino-Russia strategic cooperation provides a political guarantee.The Sino-Russia cooperation of oil pipeline is prettily significant. Firstly, the economic cooperation promotes the intimacy of political relation in order to correct the mal-situation of"hot politic and cold economy". Secondly, through such collaboration, both of the parts can get abundant economic profit and then Russia can develop a fine relationship with northeast Asia under the help of China. Thirdly, it can be an important measure to inhibit the resources hegemony, which can help to form new rules of international pricing.Its main feature is"under the leading of government". However, the breaking-up of An-Da pipeline cooperation made the cooperation of Sino-Russia oil suffer some twists and turns but the breaking-up was reasonable because the power relations of the safe structure, production structure, financial structure and knowledge of China and Russia were different, of which the profitable part disappeared only in a few years so that Russia had the willing to abolish the contact of An-Da oil pipeline unilaterally.As for the development of future Sino-Russia cooperation projects, we must learn some lessons from the past and pay attention to the actual effect so that we can make progress. The inequality of the status of china and Russia, in cooperation of oil pipelines, increases the uncertainty but it makes the settlement of disputes in international pricing easy relatively.
