REPORT BY THE


Comptroller General


OF THE UNITED STATES


Department Of, Energy Needs To Resolve

Billions In Alleged Oil Pricing Violations





As of January 1981, the Department of Energy
(DOE) had alleged over $13 billion in oil
pricing violations. However, only $4.2 billion
of this total has been resolved primarily be-
cause of oil industry legal challenges to DOE's
regulations. Even when DOE was able to nego-
tiate settlements with oil companies, it was
generally unable to ensure that restitution
was made to injured parties.


Because petroleum pricing has been decon-
trolled and because most alleged violations
have not been settled, DOE needs to pursue
its enforcement efforts to bring these vio-
lations to a fair and orderly resolution.
