Oil & Gas
The oil and gas industries have always been subject to complex legal issues. The sheer size of construction projects, the ever-present danger of pollution incidents, the politics of who owns which resources, the need for effective sales and purchase agreements and the arrangements for transporting fuel all demand experienced and focused legal advice.
In recent years, supply shortages, new technologies and a move towards cleaner fuel are among the factors that have created fresh challenges. In the U.S., the boom in domestic shale gas production is keeping natural gas prices relatively low and driving ever-greater consumption, especially in the industrial and electric power sectors. Leading energy companies are also poised to export these reserves to fuel-hungry markets in the form of liquefied natural gas (LNG).
Whatever your needs, Eversheds Sutherland’s global oil and gas practices are here to help you navigate this evolving legal area.
