- Linkage between regional gas and oil markets is analysed using a multi-scale approach.
- Linear and nonlinear causality between regional gas and oil markets is examined.
- There is unidirectional linear causality from oil to gas markets on original level.
- Bidirectional nonlinear causality exists between oil to gas markets on original level.
- Oil and gas markets show different linear and nonlinear causality at different scales.
This study first decomposes the daily returns of regional gas and crude oil at different time scales, using the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) method. It then investigates the causality relationship between each pair of components at the different time scales, by employing the linear and nonlinear Granger causality tests. For the original returns series, this study finds that unidirectional linear Granger causality exists from crude oil markets to North American and European gas markets. However, for nonlinear characteristics, the crude oil and regional gas markets exhibit bidirectional nonlinear Granger causality. On the medium-term time scale, a bidirectional nonlinear spillover effect is found between the markets. The long-term trends for the markets suggest a significant linear relationship; however, no nonlinear spillover effect is found between the crude oil and regional gas markets.
