Abstrakt

Badaniu poddane zostało zagadnienie konkurencyjności sektorowej na przykładzie sektora gazu ziemnego w wybranych krajach Europy. Literatura przedmiotu z ostatnich lat wskazuje na ewolucję definicji zjawiska konkurencyjności, które wykraczają obecnie poza zagadnienia stricte ekonomiczne. Mimo to, badania sektora gazu ziemnego w tym zakresie skupiały się dotychczas na konkurencyjności eksportu i działalności wydobywczej. By zapełnić tę lukę badawczą, Autor przeprowadził analizę obejmującą cały sektor gazu ziemnego, odwołującej się do miar spoza tradycyjnego zestawu miar produktywności. Stworzono dedykowaną miarę syntetyczną, która ma umożliwiać analizę porównawczą współczesnych sektorów gazu ziemnego, uwzględniająca ceny oferowane odbiorcom końcowym, efektywność instytucjonalną, stopień rozwoju infrastruktury oraz potencjał do kreacji nowych miejsc pracy. Następnie zaprezentowano wyniku studium przypadku obejmującego cztery kraje, które zliberalizowały sektor gazu ziemnego, a przy tym w różnym stopniu pozostają zależne od importu tego surowca. Wyniki potwierdzają przydatność miernika syntetycznego do kompleksowej analizy względnej pozycji konkurencyjnej danego sektora gospodarki. Wyniki potwierdzają również znaczenie struktury instytucjonalnej z perspektywy promowania nowych inwestycji, budowania płynności rynku gazu ziemnego oraz potencjału do tworzenia trwałych miejsc pracy.
