Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP partner’sJo Hatton-Jones was on the drafting committee at the IChemE, as part of a multi-disciplinary team (which included consultants, clients and lawyers). As such our team at Eversheds Sutherland is well placed to advise on the intricacies in the contract, in particular the risk profile, which as we have commented on is so important to understand on an EPCM contract.
