This event, now in its 7th year, looks in detail at how contracts can be used to mitigate risk in the oil and gas industry. It brings together contractors and operators and legal and commercial departments to create the ultimate benchmarking and networking opportunity.
What’s more – it’s the only Houston based legal event that can boast such an ‘in-house heavy’ speaker faculty.

•Risk mitigations when there are variations to the scope of work
•Clarification of intellectual property rights
•Contract management over the entire contract lifecycle
•Construction of termination clauses
•Dealing with counter-party insolvency and bankruptcy
As well as additional focus days:
•International Contracting, Compliance and Ethics
•Litigation and Case Management
And back by popular demand, we will yet again be holding a full day Masterclass on Best Practice in Contract Drafting.

•Vice President and General Counsel, Hercules Offshore
•Category and Supplier Manager - Global Procurement Services, ConocoPhillips
•Associate General Counsel, Global Industries
•Associate General Counsel, Cameron
