You should have trained in a top city law firm, having qualified into project finance and specialised in the oil & gas sector, preferably with extensive experience in midstream oil & gas projects, particularly those involving pipeline and transportation projects.
You will take the lead in advising on all aspects of the midstream pipeline project, including: the reviewing, drafting and negotiating of a host government agreement, pipeline shareholders' agreement, transportation agreement and construction and other project related procurement contracts; working with external counsel and financial advisers on project financing initiatives; liaising with multiple stakeholders internally and externally; and supporting the business on project planning and scheduling. This is a challenging role and will require someone who can take a proactive approach and use their own initiative to overcome issues.
You should also be able to demonstrate significant experience in the following areas:
- International pipeline construction projects, including EPC, turnkey contracts, O&M agreements, transportation agreements, host government agreements and shareholders' agreements;
- Upstream oil and gas field developments, joint operating agreements and production sharing agreements;
- Working within an in-house legal department or experience of having been on in-house secondment;
- Project financings; and
- Sound commercial agreement drafting skills.
