ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
EMLF has held a two-day summer continuing legal education program for over forty years. The sessions cover a wide variety of topical legal issues for energy and mineral law practitioners including commercial, regulatory, title, labor and employment, ethics, litigation and practical skills, risk management, and others, and usually includes a case law and market update.
Ryan and Ryan’s session, “A Guide to Asset-Based Securitization Transactions,” will take place on Monday, June 9, from 4:00 to 4:30 p.m.
ABOUT THE SESSION
With access to traditional capital sources becoming increasingly constrained in the upstream oil and gas sector, operators are increasingly turning to alternative financing arrangements to generate cash. Among the chief financing structures gaining popularity in the industry are asset-backed securitization (“ABS”) transactions, which allow producers to convert physical reserves into financial instruments. Leading lawyers and in-house counsel will outline the challenges and opportunities in pursuing ABS transactions in the industry, including an overview of typical transaction structures and documentation, commercial considerations and participants, and a comparison of ABS deals against traditional debt and equity financing arrangements.
Panelists:
- John Grand, Vinson & Elkins
- Ryan Haddad, Blank Rome
- Ryan Purpura, Blank Rome
