Overview
The global oil and gas industry is at a crossroads. The impact of COVID-19 paired with a decrease in petroleum demand leaves a question mark over the direction the sector will take. With a high level of regulatory scrutiny and legal challenges, expertise from a dynamic oil and gas law firm is critical to managing change and securing success.
Whether you are a small exploration and production company or a large multi-national corporation, our oil and gas lawyers are equipped to address a full range of commercial and regulatory concerns. From development and financing to the execution of upstream and midstream projects, our cross-practice approach ensures you have the right expertise every step of the way.
With trends such as energy transition and digital transformation not slowing down, it is clear that the sector's attention is shifting. Emerging areas such as hydrogen and geothermal energy and the focus on environmental, social and governance (ESG) are already having a huge impact. Many major players are strengthening their net-zero goals, implementing low carbon solutions and establishing robust carbon capture programs.
While focuses such as these may be a top priority, moving towards them will bring new challenges for the industry. Those going through the process of transformation will need counsel with a deep understanding of the sector and how the market is evolving to help shape decisions.
