Oil & Gas & Energy sectors in the news - Implications for the UK

The press is carrying a number of stories covering the oil and gas and energy sectors which makes for interesting reading. A positive article in Supply Management ( http://www.supplymanagement.com/news/2014/oil-and-gas-supply-chain-contributes-ps35-billion-to-uk-economy  ) covers an EY report detailing the benefit to the UK economy of North Sea oil and gas production.  A number of interesting points: 1) Peak production was 1999 for oil and 2000 for gas and by 2012 production was down by a third in both commodities; however, a contribution of £35Bn to the UK economy is not an insignificant amount. 2) This financial amount is clearly of great interest to both UK and Scottish governments with the Independence vote only a few months away, as the economic viability of an independent Scotland has the potential to be a deciding factor in the vote. 3) Only a short mention is given to shale gas.  The exploitation of shale gas, whilst contentious, has much le...

Image

We would like to focus on the benefits that NEC3 brings to building stronger more effective teams, this article will consider both practitioners and those with only an awareness of NEC3. The format and language of NEC3 allows for widespread understanding of the contract. The six options, 17 secondary options and use of Z clauses enables greater understanding and less of a reliance upon extensive legal training.  Both those with an awareness and practitioners can gain a good understanding of the contents of specific NEC3 contracts through reading the contract. The ability to brief colleagues on the nuance of the contract and specific elements has the potential to increase the team ethos between different functions, i.e. contract administrators and the ...
