Commercial and Legal Strategies for Negotiating Long Term Gas Contracts

PRLog (Press Releas buick e)– Apr 09, 2011– As European utilities are forced to sell large amoun chevrolet ts of high-priced gas under take or pay clauses into low priced traded markets, losses on contracts can run into hundreds of millions of Euros.  Large industrial purchasers are also missing out on obtaining cheaper supplies of gas as utilities try and pass on the high costs through their own oil-indexed contracts.

These developments are leading to intense acura pressure to review the terms of long-term oil-indexed take or pay contracts.  With some purchasers achieving success in renegotiating terms with suppliers in recent months, the pressure to switch away from long-term oil-indexed gas contracts is only set to increase in the near future.

C5's ground breaking forum will bring together leading industry figures involved in the negotiation of long term gas supply contracts from across Europe to discuss the critical issues facing gas suppliers and purchasers in Europe today including:
