The Center for International Mediators and Arbitrators (CIMA) offers globally focused training and case management in Energy Arbitration, addressing the complex legal, commercial, and technical disputes that frequently arise in the energy sector—particularly in oil and gas, renewables, electricity, and extractive industries.

CIMA’s training programs are tailored for lawyers, engineers, energy executives, regulators, and arbitrators involved in energy transactions and disputes. The curriculum explores the unique features of energy arbitration, including long-term contract disputes, stabilization and renegotiation clauses, production sharing agreements (PSAs), power purchase agreements (PPAs), and the intersection between public international law and private commercial obligations. Participants are introduced to key institutional rules (e.g., ICC, LCIA, ICSID) and are trained to understand sector-specific standards, regulatory regimes, and pricing methodologies.

CIMA also provides bespoke case management services for domestic and cross-border energy disputes, offering expert support in arbitrator appointments, procedural oversight, and tribunal administration. Whether arising from upstream exploration, midstream transport, downstream distribution, or renewable energy ventures, CIMA ensures that disputes are resolved with technical precision, commercial sensitivity, and international enforceability.
