Renegotiating Contracts for the Energy Transition in the Extractives Industry

This book focuses on renegotiating extractive contracts to align with the net-zero goals. It delves into extractive contract negotiations in four ways which collectively represent a major research gap in the literature. It focuses on extractive contract provisions (a) in detail (b) in a theoretical way (c) examine their alignment with net zero goals and (d) suggest how these provisions could be re-negotiated to ensure an effective energy transition. Consequently, the book assesses how contractual provisions are responding to, or reflecting energy transition scenarios, and highlights areas to be included or strengthened that will be beneficial for all energy stakeholders. This book discusses the energy transition global landscape. While exploring country cases studies, the book assesses the transition risks in extractive contracts. It uniquely provides the negotiation tools and strategies to address these transition risks.
