This high-level event will take place on 7^th – 8^th March at the Grange St. Paul’s Hotel in Central London. The event will be followed by a day of executive workshops on 9th March 2016. The School and Centre will be represented by its World-Class Faculty and staff members.

The forum is organised by the London Centre of International Law Practice (LCILP) through its Centre for International Arbitration and Dispute Resolution, and Centre for International Energy and Natural Resources Law and Security.

The conference aims to bring together policy makers and governmental representatives, national and international oil companies, major stakeholders, arbitration institutions and energy organisations, and practitioners and academics. The conference is directed by Brandon Malone, one of LCILP’s highly regarded experts and supported by major institutions and organisations in the sector.

The event addresses the challenges in the current context marked by political instability and a drop in oil prices that is now affecting the energy market in the Middle East and Africa.

Topics include:

• An overview of the energy arbitration system
• The Middle East and Africa context: economic factors, market and security issues;
• Practical considerations when arbitrating
• Specific issues arising at the stages of exploration, extraction, refinement and distribution process
• Impact of renewable energy development
• Impact of investment by state actors
