Crude Defenses? Liability Limits For Offshore Drilling Accidents And Oil Spills, Richard Faulk
Crude Defenses? Liability Limits For Offshore Drilling Accidents And Oil Spills, Richard Faulk
Richard Faulk
All those who participate in realizing the benefits of exploration – including those who use the resulting products and depend on their safe handling to avoid harm – are subject to their dangers. When the risks are enormous, and when society’s demands are extraordinary, the situation is ripe for political compromise. The products of that compromise may not be popular at this time of crisis, but that does not lessen their importance as anchors of reason during difficult times. The Limitation Act and the OPA, as well as the procedures under Supplemental Rule F, form a foundation that enables the …
Stretching The Boom? Limiting Liability For Offshore Drilling Disasters, Richard Faulk
Stretching The Boom? Limiting Liability For Offshore Drilling Disasters, Richard Faulk
Richard Faulk
Offshore drilling is a tremendously complicated and potentially lucrative process. Unfortunately, it is also dangerous. Harvesters of fossil fuels face massive risks, not only to their lives and properties, but also to our environment and the livelihoods of all those who depend upon it. On balance, our “modern” sense of justice might insist that those who realize wealth should bear the risks that their exploration and production poses to others. But when a product, like petroleum, is inextricably woven into our national fabric, legislators sometimes reach surprising compromises. So, it seems, the owner of the Deepwater Horizon will argue in …

The Past, Present, And Future Of Energy Regulation, Richard J. Pierce Jr
The Past, Present, And Future Of Energy Regulation, Richard J. Pierce Jr
GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works
This essay is a contribution to a symposium at University of Utah. It begins with a summary of the history of energy regulation from 1960 until 2011. It then makes three arguments. First, the essay argues that the US should abandon pursuit of the goal of energy independence and pursue exclusively the goal of global warming mitigation. Second, it argues that the US should replace its present reliance on expensive and ineffective subsidies and mandates to mitigate global warming with a single mechanism to attain that goal – a large carbon tax. Third, the essay recognizes that, while a carbon …
The Future Of Oil And Gas Law, John S. Lowe
The Future Of Oil And Gas Law, John S. Lowe
Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters
Author’s thesis is simple: Oil and gas jurisprudence has a bright future. We live in a hydrocarbons world, and our economic system is not going to change dramatically overnight; we will continue to live in a world powered and heated by hydrocarbons for at least the next twenty years. In fact, world demand for oil and gas is likely to increase substantially. From the turn of the twenty-first century until mid-2008, the world watched as oil prices first inched upwards and then surged. The high energy costs that energized us until a year and a half ago (and that appear …
