The Oil & Gas E-Report is a quarterly newsletter that began in 2018. It contains articles analyzing recent developments in the law and, occasionally, articles expressing opinions regarding issues relevant to energy law.  The analysis in the articles discussing recent developments is the analysis of the authors, rather than IEL.  Similarly, any opinions expressed in articles are the opinions of the authors, rather than of IEL. This e-publication is the successor to IEL’s print publication, the Oil and Gas Reporter, which was published from 1952-2017. Please forward any comments, submissions, or suggestions to any of the IEL’s Director, Vickie Adams at vadams@cailaw.org.
