This Emerging Issues video is the third in a series about risk
management in the current economic environment. In it, Stephen
Olson and Omar Samji, partners in the Firm's Energy Practice,
discuss the unique risks for midstream oil & gas companies,
including the impact of depressed commodity prices and the current
global supply glut, the threat of bankruptcy by upstream companies
and its effect on midstream companies seeking financing, and the
relationship between producers and midstream companies with respect
to future infrastructure arrangements.
In the coming weeks, Jones Day will feature additional
videos concerning emerging markets, the energy market, and
liability management in the face of escalating debt.
