In this JSA podcast episode, our Partners, Venkatesh R Prasad and Sidharth Sethi, unpack the often-overlooked concept of “force majeure” and examine its practical significance in LNG contracts, particularly at a time when escalating geopolitical tensions, armed conflicts, and shifting trade policies are creating widespread uncertainty, disrupting global supply chains, and reshaping established trade routes through sanctions, tariffs, and export controls.
These situations have led to revisiting of the force majeure clauses in various contracts.
Sidharth’s practice covers diverse corporate commercial litigation, arbitration and alternative dispute resolution. He also advises and acts for clients in insolvency proceedings, global product liability litigations, constitutional & administrative law litigations, proceedings related to penal laws, white-collar crimes and corporate and forensic investigations.
