CREATING NEW
ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE
IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
Policy Issues & Legal Considerations
New, intensive learning programme for Corporate Executives and Government Officials
Programme Overview
Mark Moseley, Senior Counsel - Energy at a major international financial institution, has designed this intensive learning programme primarily for government officials and corporate executives concerned with the policy and legal issues raised by the establishment of new energy infrastructure facilities in developing states. Its value lies in identifying and addressing real life problems faced by those working in this sector in developing countries.
The programme is being delivered by the Centre for Energy, Petroleum and Mineral Law and Policy, a world leading school within the University of Dundee, Scotland.
The programme is part of the Executive Masters in Oil and Gas Leadership.
The primary method of learning is through the use of 'case studies', drawn from the experiences of the World Bank in providing assistance to countries undertaking the creation of new energy infrastructure facilities.
What does it cover?
In addition to dealing with a range of PPP options, the case studies will also cover a variety of energy sub-sectors, in a spread of developing regions including Africa, South Asia, East Asia and transitional states in Central and Eastern Europe. There will be a particular emphasis on the power and gas sub sectors in these regions.
A number of focal World Bank documents will be used to form the basis of the case studies, including:
-
Project Information Documents, which provide brief descriptions of World Bank projects;
-
Project Appraisal Documents, which provide more detailed information concerning the projects; and
-
Project Completion Reports, which analyse the 'lessons learned' from the projects.
In addition to these descriptive documents, the course will
also make use of World Bank toolkit materials plus sample
contractual documents.
