The OPEQ user interface contains a number of features to help student teams make production decisions in their roles as oil-producing countries.
- The 'Current Information' area displays the data from previous rounds - here teams can see how much oil their competitors produced, how much profit they made, and what the price per barrel was.
- The 'Demand Curve' graph plots total world output and price per barrel for all previous years.
- The 'Profit Analysis' chart graphically displays the country's profit and the total world profit for all previous years.
- Based on this historical information, teams enter their country's output for the upcoming year in the 'Future Production' area.
- Messages from the game administrator can be displayed in the 'Messages' strong> area.
