Global energy conference

We are delighted to host our first global energy conference in London on Tuesday 16 September 2025.

Together with insurers and leading experts, we shall be exploring major issues impacting both underwriting and claims, sharing international perspectives from a number of our overseas offices, and considering emerging risks shaping the future of the industry.

Throughout the day, there will be presentations and panel discussions covering construction and operational risks within both the onshore and offshore energy sectors (including oil and gas and renewables). The issues we shall be covering include:

  • Defect exclusion clauses: LEG vs WELCAR.
  • Climate change litigation and environmental liabilities.
  • Consequential losses: delay in start-up and contingent business interruption.
  • Emerging low carbon and renewable energy risks.
  • Geopolitics and the impact on the energy sector.
