Operator Extra Expense (Control of Well)
This covers costs associated with a well blowout. This could include regaining control, pollution clean up, and well restoration.
Property, Business Interruption & Contingent Business Interruption Coverage
This coverage protects your company’s physical assets against damage from fire, explosion, theft, vandalism and many other hazards. Protected property includes buildings, production equipment, machinery, inventory and more, as well as the associated loss of income following a loss.
Forest Fire Fighting Liability
This provides coverage for liability claims related to forest fire fighting expenses.
Directors & Officers / Employment Practice Liability
