"This book analyses the legal obstacles associated with the advancement of unitization processes and procedures at an international level. Using case studies in international (cross border) unitization and joint development agreements, the book uses regional examples from the Americas, Europe, Africa and Middle East. It will also touch upon case studies related to ongoing disputes from the South China Sea, Mediterranean Sea and Gulf of Guinea. Focusing on best practices which have influenced the development of the unitization concept, the book looks at the formulation of different models and agreements, and their potential impact on unexplored hydrocarbon resources, particularly in cases where unitization is necessary. The book will be of interest to practitioners, scholars and students in the field of natural resource law, international law and unitization"--
