Energy & Natural Resources

ACTIO advises on a wide range of issues in Ukraine's oil & gas and electricity sectors, and supports projects involving subsoil use and related land relations.

Our environmental lawyers advise clients on compliance with environmental legislation and have experience implementing projects based on the mechanisms of the Kyoto Protocol to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.

Our natural resources team has experience in subsoil use — concluding subsoil agreements, obtaining licences and permits for mineral extraction, supporting participation in auctions, signing contracts, conducting exploration, and negotiating with landowners to secure access for subsoil operations.

ACTIO also has substantial experience in land law and land use matters — including allocation and acquisition of state and municipal land, sale, purchase and lease of plots, and change of designated use, in particular as part of subsoil-related projects.
