Historically, oil and gas upstream activities were largely open to
foreign investment. However, nationalisation in recent decades has
concentrated the vast majority of natural resources in the hands of
national oil companies (NOCs). Therefore, independent oil companies
(IOCs) are increasingly likely to deal with NOCs as a partner. The
joint operating agreement (JOA) was intended as a private document
that regulates relationships between private investors. Recent
developments under several local laws require the participation of
NOCs at some stage of the JOA. In addition, many NOCs are now
operating internationally, such as Statoil, Gazprom and CNPC. JOAs
will thus be affected, as public or semi-public entities are more
likely to be party to a document which was originally constructed
for private investors. This major work analyses the critical
concerns and challenges that IOCs and NOCs face in this new type of
consortium, and will ultimately suggest alternative solutions to
find common ground between these parties. The book is divided into
three chapters, which respectively deal with the supervision &
conduct of operations, the financial and accounting issues relating
to the consortium, and the other relevant provisions of the
agreement. Each chapter will include analysis from the perspectives
of four different types of company - large IOCs, large NOCs, young
IOCs and young NOCs. This approach will provide a detailed picture
of the JOA from the point of view of all players in the oil and gas
industry, from small to large companies and private to public
entities. This new edition, which is written by three relevant
experts in the industry, updates the previous content and addresses
new hot issues like compliance, conflict of interests, corporate
and social responsibility and price volatility. It serves as an
invaluable guide for IOCs, independents, NOCs, consultants, legal
advisers and consultants who need to understand the implications of
having an NOC as a party to a JOA.
