Expert Witness

RYC offers 2 key areas of expert witness services.

Firstly, expert witness reports and testimony can be provided on a range of subject matters. Areas of key expertise include refining (technology and economics), oil pricing, gas pricing, and supply and demand and market analysis for oil, refined products, natural gas and LNG. Zoe Young has provided a number of expert reports and testimony over the years and a number of examples are given here.

In addition RYC also offers assistance with the identification of an expert witness. The concept of the service is simple - the process of identifying the best expert witness for the job is optimised by allowing legal experts to focus on legal requirements and oil industry experts to focus on the oil industry.

RYC provide an initial view on the merits of the case identifying the exact nature of the dispute, the areas where expert input is best focused, and hence the areas of expertise required. From here we can quickly focus on identifying and contacting appropriate candidates. If required, we can also provide short courses or presentations to the legal team on the fundamentals of the oil and gas industry that are pertinent to the particular case or dispute.
