Arbitrating International Petroleum Disputes: an Analysis of Key Substantive Law Issues
by Dr. Zeyad A. Alqurashi
The exploration and development of oil and gas in developing countries have often been conducted by international oil companies rather than the countries themselves. International petroleum companies and host governments and/or governmental agencies conclude agreements for this purpose. Such agreements have over time retained certain fundamental characteristics. They involve large, complex and risky investments. They involve a relationship between a host government and/or governmental agency and a foreign private company. In addition, due to the strategic importance of petroleum to both consumers and producers, such agreements have always been politically charged. These characteristics help to understand why international petroleum agreements have almost always provided for arbitration as a method for the settlement of disputes.

Oil and the Niger Delta People in International Law - Resource Rights, Environmental and Equity Issues
by Dr. Kaniye S.A. Ebeku
This book is about oil extraction in Nigeria’s Niger Delta and the associated environmental and equity issues. Importantly, it is not just another contribution to the growing literature on these issues. It is, indeed, a significant new study of these issues from the perspective of international law. As is well-known, Nigeria is the 6th oil producing country within the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and the 7th oil producing country in the world. Hence, the global importance of Nigeria’s oil cannot be over-emphasised. Apart from its global importance, oil revenue is the main source of Nigeria’s annual foreign exchange earnings and contributes about 95 per cent of the country’s annual revenue.
