Europe in transition - EUNOR seminar

What are the main regulatory characteristics of the Norwegian model for petroleum exploration, production and supply? To what extent is this model relevant for the design of corresponding models in other countries with significant or potential petroleum resources?

Which regulatory regimes apply to the exploration and exploitation of seabed resources? Is the current legal framework under notably the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) appropriate enough to deal with those new use types? Are the arising risks of abuse, conflict and pollution sufficiently taken into account and dealt with? The seminar will present current research efforts to answer those questions.

Introduction by PhD Maria Helena Fonseca de Souza Rolim, co-author of a book on the same subject.
