Download or read book Dispute Resolution in the Oil and Gas Industry written by Iyadah John Viko and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disputes in the oil and gas industry can range from quantity and quality disputes, jurisdiction disputes, disputes involving equipment, gas contracts, oil trading contracts, subcontracting and a host of them. In the oil and gas industry, you tend to find different contractors from different parts of the World coming together in a joint venture, or some sort of arrangements for commercial purposes. Generally, dispute is inevitable, so also in the oil industry. Therefore it is advisable and necessary to anticipate likely disputes in advance and provide a suitable means to resolve such disputes. The need for processes that are fast, effective and cause minimum or no disruptions to working activities and relationships are always appropriate. Processes that are both private and flexible are most preferred by the oil industry. This is because the nature of the oil industry is a peculiar one in the sense that it makes or loses money per second of production or non-production. This work summarises and discusses why resort to court is inevitable in the Oil and gas industry.

This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Law - Miscellaneous, Uganda Christian University (School of Research and Post Graduate Studies), course: LLM, language: English, Middle (1100-1500), abstract: This Research will focus on the efficacy of the dispute resolution mechanisms including legal and non-legal nature in Uganda’s Model PSA. The researcher evaluated, resolved and examined the ADRs and legal forms by using primary, and secondary sources to do qualitative and quantitative analysis. This study also described the rules, procedures and limitations of dispute resolution mechanisms in the MPSA. This research will recommend that the scope of disputes to be resolved through arbitration under Uganda’s Model PSA’s should be widened, further that arbitration should be taught to all lawyers as continued legal education process and it will also recommend that institutions like CADER AND ICAMEK be strengthened and our Arbitration and Conciliation Act of 2000 and its rules be revised to meet international standards so as to be relevant in the oil and gas industry and to make it effective in resolving oil and gas disputes. Dispute Resolutions are key to the development of not only a sector like oil and gas but has a direct correlation with the development of an economy. Key among the dispute resolution mechanism is Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), also described as the non-legal nature of dispute resolution. ADR has become the norm in resolving conflicts between IOC’s and States in dealing with oil and gas disputes. This is so because it provides a quick and confidential mechanism of resolution of disputes and it can be done in a place or seat agreed by the parties. As a result, it is one of the key considerations in attracting investments unlike the traditional litigation system whose appellate processes are long and in most cases beleaguered with accusations of corruption especially in developing Countries. Uganda like many other jurisdictions has a robust legal framework aimed at enhancing alternative dispute resolutions and it’s a party to many conventions for example, the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (the New York Convention), ICSID and the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration and its home based legislations which are key to facilitating alternative dispute resolution. Provisions for Alternative Dispute Resolution are included in the PSAs Models of Uganda as a way of encouraging dispute resolutions in Uganda’s oil and gas sector.

Download or read book Alternative Dispute Resolution in Oil and Gas Industry in Nigeria with Special Reference to the Niger Delta Crisis written by Fatima Motunrayo Lawal and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explore ways of resolving oil and gas disputes especially environmental issues such as oil spillage, gas flaring, effluent discharge etc that create environmental degradation using Alternative Dispute Resolution, ADR mechanisms. The concept of ADR has its origin in African laws, thus is not alien to African people. The study exposes the limitation in environmental litigation through the courts in the oil and gas sector in Nigeria. The limitations are as a result of numbers of factors the most significant being the over bearing influence of the multinational corporations; the enormous support they enjoyed from the Federal Government; weak statutory provisions and limitation of the common law in tackling environmental problem. The study adopted the qualitative methodology in the gathering and analysis of it data. The study examined key legislations on environment guiding the operation of the Nigerian oil industry, case laws and common law principles applicable to the environment and environmental litigation in the Nigerian context. The study also gathered data through the instrumentality of semi-structured interview and focus group discussion with community leaders, environmental activists, alternative disputes resolution practitioners and employees in selected oil multinational corporations in Nigeria. The core problem that informed this study is the examination of the problem of environmental degradation arising from the operation of the oil industry and the associated crisis of neglect, marginalization, loss of livelihood and poverty in the Niger Delta. The core objective of the research is to explore how environmental degradation associated with the operation of the Nigerian oil and gas industry in the Niger Delta has generated endemic systemic conflict and to examine the efficacy of the various initiatives taken by the Nigerian State and the oil multinationals in resolving environmental based and related conflicts in the oil producing areas. The significance of the study lies in its attempt at highlighting the importance of ADR as the most amicable, economical and speedy way of settling disputes that often arise in the course of the operational activities of the oil and gas industry in the Niger Delta. The point being that such disputes deserves to be quickly and speedily resolved via the instrumentality of ADR in order to avoid the destabilization that might arise through long drawn court litigation. The literature confirmed grave environmental devastation in the Niger Delta and the inability of adversarial litigation in ensuring environmental justice in Nigeria. The findings show that there is increasing incidence of disputes that arise out of environmental concern between communities and companies in the region. These disputes are made worse by the failing inability of the court system to deliver environmental justice to claimants in the area. This failing inability is as a result of corrupt practices, obnoxious government policies, fraudulent practices among community leaders, unruly behaviour of multinational oil companies, attempts at avoiding culpability through dubious legal means among other issues. This has hindered efforts at achieving sustainable peaceful community-companies relations. This in turn has led to confrontation between host communities and companies over the control of natural resources and sustainable use of the environment. According to findings of this study litigation has failed the people in the Niger Delta in their struggle for justice. This is also corroborated by existing literature on the issue. Hence ADR is therefore, considered as the best alternative nonadversarial methods of resolving environmental and other related disputes in the Nigerian oil and gas industry in addition to the use of faith based principle if properly implemented.

Download or read book International Arbitration in the Energy Sector written by Maxi Scherer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disputes in the energy and natural resources sector are at the heart of international arbitration. With more arbitrations arising in the international energy sector than in any other sector, it is not surprising that the highest valued awards in the history of arbitration come from energy-related arbitrations. Energy disputes often involve complex and controversial issues relating to security, sovereignty, and public welfare. International Arbitration in the Energy Sector puts international energy disputes into a global context, providing broad coverage of different forms and systems of dispute resolution across both renewable and non-renewable sectors. With contributions from leading arbitrators, academics, and industry experts from across the globe, the twenty chapters in the book enable readers to compare the approaches to, and learnings from, energy arbitrations across various legal systems and geographic regions. After outlining the international energy arbitration legal framework in Part I, the text delves into a detailed analysis of the problems which regularly arise in practice. These include, among other things, commercial disputes in Part II (e.g. over the upstream oil sector and long-term gas supply contracts), investor-state disputes in Part III (e.g. under the Energy Charter Treaty), and public international law disputes in Part IV (e.g. concerning international boundaries and the distribution of natural resources). Alongside recent developments in the international energy sector, attention is given to climate and sustainable development disputes, which raise important questions about enforcing sustainability objectives on individuals, corporations, and states. Backed by analyses of arbitral awards, national court and international tribunal decisions, treaties, and other international legal instruments, as well as current events and news in the energy industry, this text offers a unique contribution to international energy literature and provides insightful commentary on the prevalent issues in the field. It is essential reading for any practitioner or researcher in the energy and natural resources sector.
