Energy and Natural Resources
The world's natural resources are fundamental to modern life and the winds of change are blowing through the energy industries as never before. Internationally, non-conventional oil and gas exploration, renewable energy, LNG, gas storage, carbon capture and storage (CCS), carbon trading and the concerns arising from climate change, as well as developments in decommissioning and increased interest in nuclear power in the UK, all present exciting challenges and opportunities for businesses.
Operators of large gas fields in the southern North Sea or of small onshore wind farms, huge coal-burning power generators and innovators in renewable energies from tidal to wave to biomass demand sector specialists who are able to inform their business decisions on a legal and commercial level and respond at the speed of often volatile markets.
