Abstract
The unpredictability of the political and economic factors governing the energy sector has yielded an upward trend for high-value disputes and contentious matters which usually arise from oil and gas exploration and production activities. Failure to resolve these disputes and regulatory issues may result in costly and complex litigation. Thus, exposing companies to risks and unwanted damages.
To mitigate these risks that continue to threaten the energy industry, it becomes more important to be in the know of the most efficient and effective dispute avoidance and resolution strategies. It is also substantial for businesses and their counsel to know the best litigation strategies to better position themselves during litigation.
In this live webcast, seasoned thought leaders from NERA Economic Consulting brought together by The Knowledge Group will provide and present to the audience an in-depth analysis of the recent developments in energy disputes and litigation. Speakers will also offer helpful insights and winning strategies in drafting efficient and compelling arguments in light of the most important and recent trends.
Key issues that will be covered in this course are:
• Energy Market Trends (Oil, Gas, and Power)
• Energy Regulation Dispute Issues
• Commercial Litigation Involving Energy Sector
• Regulatory & Litigation Trends to Watch
