Projects

  • Successful representation of the US and Swiss oil trading companies in a dispute with the largest Russian petrochemical companies and foreign terminals. In 2022, the Clients failed to perform the obligations to purchase the goods from the Russian suppliers, as well as the ‘take-or-pay’ obligations before foreign terminals due to sectoral sanctions and their consequences. KIAP lawyers secured settlement of all the disputes to avoid arbitrations under the rules of the ICC, SCC, ICAC at the RF CCI.
  • Preparation of legal memoranda analyzing Arts. 248.1 and 248.2 of the APC RF (Lugovoy Law), inter alia, for a leading international law firm in the field of international arbitration. The Client sought a memorandum as a part of international arbitrations with state-owned Russian gas giants.
  • Successful representation of the largest private oil-trading company from Switzerland in a dispute against a Russian petrochemical company. The dispute arose out of the Russian company’s claims to compensate costs for elimination of commercial defects of the car tanks. In course of arbitration under the auspices of the ICAC at the CCI RF, arbitrators were convinced that the claimant had failed to prove the damages it alleged to have incurred since 2017.
  • Preparation of an opinion on foreign notification under the 1965 Hague Convention through the main and alternative routes for a law firm from the British Overseas Territories.
