Risk in the energy sector is unavoidable—but it can be anticipated, managed, and mitigated. At Kayrouz & Associates, we conduct detailed legal risk assessments for energy companies and review insurance frameworks to ensure they align with project realities and contractual obligations.
Our lawyers assist clients in evaluating risk exposure across project phases, from exploration and construction to operations and decommissioning. We advise on contractual clauses related to indemnity, liability limits, force majeure, and damages, ensuring these provisions support effective risk allocation and reduce exposure to claims.
We also work closely with insurers and brokers to review policies for adequacy, exclusions, and enforceability. Whether the issue concerns property damage, business interruption, professional liability, or environmental coverage, we help ensure clients are properly protected under both local and cross-border arrangements.
In contentious scenarios, we represent clients in disputes over denied coverage, policy interpretation, and insurer negotiations. Our goal is to secure favourable outcomes while preserving the commercial relationship where possible.
We offer legal advice on a wide spectrum of matters:
- Reviewing EPC, O&M, and energy service agreements for risk allocation
- Evaluating insurance coverage against contractual and regulatory needs
- Advising on policy negotiation, renewal, and claims strategy
- Drafting indemnity, liability, and force majeure provisions
- Representing clients in disputes with insurers or third-party claimants
