Summary
Published arbitral awards relating to the international oil and gas exploration and production industry address a wide range of substantive legal issues that reflect the industry’s nature and specificities. For example, the awards contain rulings on the responsibility of a State for the conduct of its national oil company, the project management obligations of joint venturers in an exploration and production project, and the impact for an international oil company of changes to the host State’s fiscal regime. This article summarizes and classifies the key substantive rulings in all awards published since 1998 that relate to the international exploration and production industry, serving as an update of Doak Bishop’s groundbreaking article entitled International Arbitration of Petroleum Disputes: The Development of a Lex Petrolea. The rulings are classified primarily according to the substantive areas of dispute in order to highlight the development of legal rules adapted to the industry’s specific characteristics.
