Energy & Resources
The complexity of energy and resources projects demands a multi-disciplinary team with the ability to advise on the unique challenges that will arise.
Our Energy & Resources Expertise
Energy and resources projects are typically complex, capital-intensive initiatives that raise unique challenges across a range of areas, including infrastructure, the environment, native title, land tenure, government regulation and industrial relations.
These projects demand legal advisers who can deal with multifaceted projects; who understand the commercial, technical and practical issues as well as the legal and contractual ones, while keeping the interests of the various stakeholders in mind.
Our multi-disciplined Energy & Resources team brings together experts in competition and regulation, financial services, tax, infrastructure, environment, employment, intellectual property, dispute resolution and other specialist areas, to deliver a commercially focused, solutions-orientated service.
We act for a variety of participants in the mining and oil and gas sectors, both in the conventional and the non-conventional sectors, including coal seam gas and LNG, as well as the electricity and renewable energy sectors.
We provide advice and assistance with documents, regulations and dispute resolution at all stages, from the exploration phase through to development, production and sales.
We also advise on operational and project specific transactions such as joint venture agreements, merger and acquisition transactions, competition and access and dispute resolution.
