Investopedia explains 'International Energy Agency - IEA'

An example of one of the IEA's successes is the oil supply crisis of 2005. The crisis was caused by the devastating Hurricane Katrina and was mostly offset by the release of emergency oil stockpiles by IEA member countries. Agreement among IEA members for this type of collective action allows for a more organized response to oil disruptions.
