Contract for Drilling Works and other Services Agreements

Contract for Drilling Works and other Services Agreements

Service contracts in the area of subsoil use are complex commercial agreements and play a key role in course of subsoil use operations. Based on our practice, such contracts can be concluded both with the participation of local and foreign companies depending on the scope of work and area of their performance. There are many questions of responsibility, distribution of risks and other questions that require complex legal expertise, arising in the process of concluding contracts for drilling works and other services agreements.

Experience:

• advising Kazakhstani and international clients in connection with the drafting of various types of complex commercial agreements, including a bare boat charter agreement and drilling agreements for exploration wells;
• advising a large Kazakhstani subsoil user in connection with commercial risks under the contract for drilling exploration wells;
• advising a large foreign subsoil user in connection with conclusion of contracts for drilling works and services agreements for other works performed when drilling exploration wells.

Our experience allows us considering legal consequences when drafting services agreements for any types of works in the area of subsoil use.
