This book, prepared in association with STEP and the first to comprehensively approach this topic, provides an in-depth analysis of the beneficial ownership registers legislation in a number of EU jurisdictions as well as the UK and US.

This new major work will analyse the critical concerns and challenges that IOCs and NOCs face in this new type of consortium, and will ultimately suggest alternative solutions to find common ground between these parties. The book is divided into three chapters, which respectively deal with the conduct of operations, the financial issues relating to the consortium and the boilerplates of the agreement.. Each chapter will include analysis from the perspectives of four different types of company.
