The Nigerian Institute of Chartered Arbitrators will bring together people from the international community and African Arbitration (ADR) authorities to generate ideas, review the rules and laws, regularizations and practices.
WilmerHale Partner Danielle Morris will speak on the panel "Realizing the Full Value of ADR in Energy and Environmental Disputes in Africa." The panel will examine the evolving role of arbitration and alternative dispute resolution in energy, with a focus on the developments, challenges and opportunities to maximize the value of ADR in the energy sector of Nigeria. Panelists will dissect international best practices and strategies that could help arbitrators improve the efficiency and enforceability of energy litigation arbitration decisions, particularly with respect to long-term oil contracts.
