The Offshore Oil & Gas Industry
The offshore oil and gas industry includes three types of companies:
- Oil exploration and production companies that own mineral lease rights to the oil and gas.
- Drilling contractors that drill the wells for the oil companies.
- Oilfield services companies that provide assistance in drilling the well, including assistance regarding everything from wireline to ROVs to topside drilling equipment.
No Fee Unless We Win
At Morrow & Sheppard LLP, we understand the hardships of trying to heal and make sense of an accident. That is why we work on a contingency fee basis, which means no fee unless we win the case. Our fee is a percentage of the verdict or settlement we obtain for you.
