In this paper, we'll see three diff erent schools of thought - private management, state management and public-private partnership - for the proper management of common pool resources, focusing particularly on the case of non-renewable resources, like gas and oil. We will try to determine the strengths and weaknesses of each of these schools of thought, review some experiences about their use, and provide a thorough explanation of the parameters we should take into account when choosing a property management regime. For this purpose, our concept of private management consists in the administration of human resources, the decision of accounting and organization structure policies, and the formation and performance of contractual arrangements by a firm or an individual (whether or not the firm or individual make an investment); our concept of state management involves state investment of technology and human resources in the exploitation of non-renewable resources, as well as the exclusive state administration and decision-making on everything that concerns them; our concept of public-private partnerships is conceived as a contract between the state and one or more private parties, in which the private party provides investment and/or a public service or project and assumes a part of the costs and risks involved in the project.
