Oil Barons
A business simulation that puts you in charge of a petrochemical conglomerate, where your only goal is to increase your fortune by trading oil. You can choose to run the company from 1 to 10 years: each game turn represents half a financial year and allows you to buy domestic and foreign oil, deliver it to refineries, review your profit and loss and net worth, manage your cash reserves, make investments and trade on the stock market.
To expand your business, you can put your hard-earned petrodollars to work by buying more wells, refineries and gas stations, investing in R&D (to increase production efficiency) or paying lobbyists. Debts can force you into liquidation, while equipment failures can lead to pollution and fines . . . not to mention nuisances like strikes, union disputes, oil spills and hostile takeovers. And if the nice guys at the IRS bust you for tax fraud, you may even find yourself in jail.
