Chris shares his 25 years experience as a leading lawyer in the oil and gas industry to introduce the most common and important upstream agreements. Looking at the various types of grants of rights, joint venture agreements, supply and construction contracts, and agreements for the transportation and sale of production. Never before has a book been published for the international oil and gas sector by a practitioner covering the fundamentals of upstream agreements.
It will be of value to newcomers to the upstream who want an introduction to the subject and will also be of interest to more experienced practitioners.
The book also forms the basis for our two-day conference of the same name. Attending the conference will further expand the delegate’s knowledge of upstream agreements. The course can also be presented in-house by arrangement, for a maximum of 16 people.
Alternatively, there will be opportunities to join us at one of the international public conferences that we will be holding on a regular basis during 2009.
