Regional Masterclass Production Sharing Contracts 2019

18th November 2019 - 20th November 2019

Overview

The Production Sharing Contract is perhaps one of the most fundamental forms of contract to be found in the International Oil and Gas Industry. Nevertheless, it is without a doubt one of the most centrally significant legal agreements to be found. The purpose of any contract is to establish what the rights; duties and obligations of the parties are in terms of both performance and conduct. PSC’s normally involve the granting of certain rights (exploration and production) from a Host Government to an International Oil Company (IOC) in order to search for and develop hydrocarbon resources. They are high value; represent a significant investment (for the IOC); tend more towards the longer term and often have a higher risk profile.  

This course has been specifically designed to provide the delegate with a clear insight into some of the central issues and mechanisms that define a PSC. The course is an immersive experience with case studies and exercises throughout. The delivery is through open; fluid dialogue – class discussion and knowledge sharing.
