Oil and Gas Contract Knowledge Hub by Olga Labai

Welcome to Oil and Gas Contracts Knowledge Hub!

Upstream contracts are not blank pages. The industry has spent decades developing standards, precedents and risk-allocation logic. The knowledge often exists, but it was not embedded effectively in templates, approval systems, negotiations and day-to-day practices. And too often, that knowledge fails to reach the people making the commercial decisions. Procurement, commercial, business-development, contract-management and technical professionals must be able to open a contract, understand its terms and commercial consequences, identify the questions that matter, question the terms, negotiate with authority and recognise when specialist legal advice is genuinely required. 

Our goal is better-informed ownership of the contracting process across procurement, commercial, operational and technical teams.
