Oil and Gas
Risk and opportunity are the two constants in the oil and gas industry. At Fieldfisher, our Europe-wide team of expert lawyers help clients across the world maximise opportunities and mitigate risks, whatever their involvement in the hydrocarbons sector.
Why choose our Oil and Gas lawyers?
We advise on exploration, development and production activities, decommissioning, prospective partners, corporate and asset due diligence, and project finance and security arrangements.
With complementary expertise in regulatory, insurance and risk transfer, and contentious and non-contentious construction, our oil and gas team helps clients tackle a multitude of legal challenges, no matter the size or complexity of the issue.
Pragmatic and solution-focused, our specialist lawyers provide legal advice to management and in-house teams on upstream, midstream and downstream matters.
We have over 50 years of oil and gas sector experience on the UKCS, in mainland Europe, across Africa and the CIS, and are further supported by leading lawyers from Fieldfisher's corporate, projects and infrastructure, dispute resolution, banking and finance, competition, environment, health and safety, insolvency, intellectual property, real estate, planning and tax teams.
We work with a range of international clients, including explorers, developers, producers, investors, banks, traders and brokers, all of which benefit from our integrated international approach and local expertise.
Our Paris office has a particular specialisation in the OHADA laws of West and Central Africa, while our CIS group comprises dual-qualified UK and CIS lawyers fluent in English, Russian and other regional languages.
