Oil, Gas and CCS
The oil and gas industry, including carbon capture and storage (CCS), remains Norway’s most vital sector and is expected to continue its prominence for many years. We work closely with authorities and various stakeholders on the Norwegian continental shelf and in the supplier industry, and have in-depth knowledge of all facets of the industry.
Our lawyers are recognised leaders in the field, combining high professional quality with a practical and commercial approach tailored to our clients’ needs.
The oil, gas, and CCS industry is continually evolving, and also highly integrated with the EU and the UK. Understanding both Norwegian regulations and EU legislation is crucial for industry players.
Our team provides legal assistance to authorities and various stakeholders across all areas of law in the oil, gas, and CCS industry. Our services include regulatory advice, contract drafting and negotiations, development projects, dispute resolution, financing, tax advice, and regulatory follow-up. Our lawyers bring industry experience, ensuring our advice is practical and solution-oriented. Our experts have been involved in the largest development projects on the Norwegian continental shelf, major disputes in both ordinary courts and arbitration, and numerous significant transactions. Wiersholm has also played a pivotal role in developing CO2 transportation and storage on the NCS.
We work closely with our dispute resolution team and our teams specialising in EU law, financing, and tax.
