Gas & LNG Contract Negotiations

The Gas & LNG Contract Negotiations course, offered by London Petro Academy, is an intensive and practice-focused program designed to empower energy professionals with essential legal, commercial, and strategic skills for negotiating, drafting, and managing gas and LNG contracts in today’s rapidly evolving global market. Delivered through expert-led lectures, case studies, and in-depth negotiation exercises, the course covers Gas Sales Agreements (GSAs) and LNG Sale and Purchase Agreements (SPAs), incorporating analysis of market trends, decarbonisation imperatives, and shifting regulatory challenges. Participants benefit from real-world insights drawn from major international arbitrations, market dynamics, and practical negotiation scenarios, ensuring readiness to operate confidently across the gas and LNG value chain.

Participants will learn to analyse global gas and LNG market dynamics and their impact on negotiation leverage and pricing strategies; identify and negotiate key commercial terms in GSAs and LNG SPAs; structure and manage complex contract negotiations under evolving regulatory and policy environments; integrate decarbonisation and ESG requirements into contracts; implement contractual safeguards to manage compliance challenges such as sanctions and export controls; and apply robust negotiation techniques to achieve balanced, enforceable, and future-proof agreements. The course also equips attendees to address price volatility, change in law, supply disruptions, and successfully navigate dispute resolution in gas and LNG contracts.

This course is tailored for mid-to-senior level professionals working in the gas and LNG sectors, including commercial managers, legal counsel, contract negotiators, policymakers, and advisors within energy companies, law firms, government agencies, and financial institutions. It is highly relevant for those responsible for structuring, negotiating, and managing gas and LNG supply contracts, as well as professionals involved in deal analysis, contract risk assessment, and dispute resolution across international energy markets.
