Description
  • Is liability still the central battleground in modern energy disputes, as projects grow more complex and risks are spread across multiple parties and contracts?
  • How should tribunal’s approach liability where technical uncertainty is unavoidable, including drilling, subsurface performance and early-stage project failure?
  • What role do experts play in helping tribunals disentangle breach, causation and quantum in large-scale energy arbitrations?
  • Are established approaches to loss, delay and production claims still fit for purpose in energy disputes shaped by volatile markets?
