Understanding export control is vital for Norwegian companies, particularly in the offshore oil & gas services and renewables sectors. Advanced technologies, like remotely operated underwater vehicles, sensors, navigation systems, and other marine technologies, often fall under dual-use regulations, which may require compliance with Norwegian and foreign export control laws, particularly U.S. law, which can apply extraterritorially. This webinar will address key topics including:
Norwegian Export Control:
We will provide insights into the current state of Norway’s export control landscape, focusing on recent trends and what Norwegian companies can expect in the near future.
Managing Risks Related to Russia and China:
Our experts will delve into the vectors of export control risk related to these regions and offer best practices for managing compliance in an ever-changing global environment.
Mitigating Export Diversion Risks:
We’ll address how companies can mitigate the risks of export diversion and the importance of rigorous counterparty due diligence, particularly in transactions involving “Denied Persons” or “high priority list” items.
Jurisdictional Challenges:
We’ll navigate the complexities of foreign export control, particularly over items of U.S. origin and non-U.S. origin, incorporating U.S. content or based on U.S. technology or software, with a focus on the specific risks within the offshore oil & gas services and renewables sectors.
Recent Developments and Predicted Shifts in U.S. Export Controls:
We will explore the latest developments regarding U.S. export controls, which have emerged as a complement to sanctions and a preferred tool of the U.S. government for addressing geopolitical challenges. Moreover, we will forecast how U.S. export control policies may evolve following the U.S. election and discuss the potential implications for global trade and industries reliant on dual-use technologies.
