Course Overview
A contract governing production sharing agreements that nobody administers is a document, not a control. Most contractual disputes about this part of legal and contractual practice are decided by what was written, not what was intended. Applied research in legal and contractual practice consistently shows that early structure around the wider legal and contractual practice agenda reduces downstream rework. Participants apply production sharing agreements to their own contract portfolio throughout, so the output is directly usable. The course covers this aspect of legal and contractual practice at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. Participants who influence this strand of legal and contractual practice without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on production sharing agreements and revise it on evidence. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting the practice within legal and contractual practice and under-invest in testing it. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the wider legal and contractual practice agenda that participants can repeat annually.
