About

Provided by Winstead PC

Winstead’s oil and gas team understands the business of the energy industry. We utilize our extensive knowledge to achieve clients’ goals in the boardroom and courtroom. Clients include major oil and gas companies, large independents, and start-up ventures. We also represent mid-stream, marketing, refining, and pipeline companies. 

Our team represents electric and gas utilities, pipelines, and other regulated energy companies in numerous contested cases, rulemaking procedures, and compliance matters before state and federal energy regulatory agencies. With decades of experience representing clients before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Public Utility Commission of Texas, and the Railroad Commission of Texas, we deeply understand how to coalesce compliance and regulatory requirements with our energy clients’ business objectives.

Winstead’s energy litigation attorneys are experienced in all aspects of the energy industry, having handled disputes from the bottom of the wellbore, on and offshore, to the pipeline, and on to final distribution. We are also experienced in unconventional drilling litigation, assisting energy producers in cases filed in jurisdictions in eight of the major U.S. shale plays. Our litigators understand the technical complexity of oil and gas production and marketing and how it affects the bottom line for clients and have handled cases before judges, juries, or arbitrators in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Kansas, and California.
