We call it the ‘North Sea Energy Law Partnership’ or NSELP for short. But our vision and content is far more holistic than that. Our name came about simply because all 4 universities in the programme are located in 4 key North Sea nations. But just to be clear, our vision is always global.
The Netherlands, Norway, the United Kingdom and Denmark have all been at the forefront of the world’s offshore oil and gas development from the start. And as European countries, these countries have also led the way in developing the liberalisation of downstream energy markets. In fact, today these nations take a lead role in renewable technologies too. And it is this global expertise in energy law that we want to expose you to. So although our consortium name contains the words ‘North Sea’ – you can be sure our vision and curriculum go much further.
