Energy, oil & gas law in Jeddah: a sector with special regulations differing from general commercial law

Saudi Arabia's energy sector, from traditional oil and gas to renewable energy projects growing under Vision 2030, operates under special regulatory frameworks fundamentally different from general commercial law: exploration and production licenses, production-sharing agreements, and local content (industrial Saudization) requirements in major contracts.

Energy contracts: technical and legal complexity together

Energy project contracts (especially renewable energy and green hydrogen within NEOM and other projects) need understanding of complex technical risk allocation (equipment performance, grid connection, long-term power purchase agreements) alongside traditional legal drafting, making this specialty require dual technical and legal understanding.

Local content: an increasingly important obligation

Major energy projects increasingly face mandatory local content requirements (certain percentages of supply, manufacturing, or employment must be local), and non-compliance can expose the contractor to fines or exclusion from future tenders.

FAQ

What visitors often ask

Do the lawyers work remotely with clients outside the city?
It differs from lawyer to lawyer and is agreed with the lawyer directly. Attendance before the competent body is arranged when needed.
Do the lawyers answer urgent cases?
That depends on the lawyer, so mention any approaching date or legal deadline in your message so the lawyer can check whether they can take the file.
Will I know the cost before I start?
Ask the independent lawyer about fees before agreeing and ask for them in writing. We are not a party to that agreement.
Where is this kind of case heard?
That depends on the nature of the file, and it commonly involves the sector's relevant regulatory bodies, alongside general authorities such as the Ministry of Commerce and oversight bodies. The independent lawyer confirms the competent body after reviewing your documents.
Do I need to visit the lawyer to start?
Not necessarily. That is agreed between you and the independent lawyer. Contact may start remotely, and a visit is only needed at certain stages, such as signing a power of attorney or attending a hearing.
