Cutting through complexity
We turn process into progress, distilling volumes of information and cutting to the issues that really matter to give you a clear-eyed view of the essential issues at stake: the circumstances, the causes and the value at stake. We convert this into well founded negotiation advice and independent expert opinion.
Credibility built on experience
Our credibility with clients, legal counsel and tribunal panels comes from the real world experience of our team. As senior, seasoned industry practitioners, they have built careers successfully managing complex contracts and resolving disputes.
Collectively, our team has worked in every aspect of the industry from project structuring, upstream, liquefaction operations, commercial negotiation, pipeline, shipping, trading and portfolio management and hedging to export, import and regasification. We use that experience and a detailed understanding of the current market to be the credible, independent voice that moves disputes forward.
Advice from every angle
Each dispute has its own drivers demanding specific specialism. Our multi-disciplinary team bring that breadth as well as specialist depth: as traders, economists, financiers, accountants, analysts, consultants, geologists, process and chemical engineers.
