Resource Nationalism, ESG and Investor Protection: The New Frontier of Oil & Gas Arbitration in Africa
As the global energy landscape evolves, market complexities in Africa present a variety of challenges and opportunities. From traditional offshore oil explorations to gas installations, the peculiarities of energy projects often give rise to disputes that demand a nuanced approach for resolution.
This session discusses what could go wrong when making deals, and how to manage those disputes when they arise. By highlighting arbitration as the preferred mechanism for resolving disputes in the sector, this panel will explore the multifaceted dimensions of energy disputes, examine the intricate interplay between technical complexities, contractual obligations, legal frameworks, and political context. From a wave of military interventions across West Africa over the past few years to supply chain disruptions following actions in Ukraine and Venezuela, the panel will spotlight the impact of global geopolitics on the energy business and the disputes arising from these events.
