Oil and gas lawyers and energy law firms

Oil and gas lawyers work across the life of a hydrocarbon asset, from exploration rights to the final plugging of wells. They negotiate production sharing contracts and concessions, draft joint operating agreements, handle farm-ins and asset sales, and advise on pipelines, refining and LNG supply. Disputes over pricing, cost recovery and decommissioning liabilities are also part of the work. Midstream and downstream clients raise their own questions about tariffs, storage and product quality.

The state usually owns subsoil resources, so licensing terms come from national petroleum laws and ministries. Norway, the UK, Nigeria, Brazil and the Gulf states each run distinct fiscal and licensing regimes. International disputes frequently go to arbitration under ICC, LCIA or UNCITRAL rules, and bilateral investment treaties may protect foreign investors.

Most oil and gas mandates are billed hourly on large teams, with capped fees or blended rates for transactions. Arbitration funders sometimes finance claims against states. Contingency fees in the strict sense are uncommon and are barred in many of the countries where these deals are done.

Time limits appear in the contracts themselves, such as notice periods for default, pre-emption rights and price review windows. Statutory limitation periods apply to claims as well. Before you hire, ask about the firm's experience in the producing country, its local counsel network and its track record in oil and gas arbitration. Filter by country or city below to compare firms and contact them directly.
