In this scholarly work the main features of the globalization process are outlined, inasmuch as the relevance of Comparative Law. The adoption of international standardized models of contracts is addressed as part of a harmonization effort, in order to reduce risks. Further, the knock-for-knock liability regime originated in the Anglo-Saxon practice and typical of oil and gas contracts is analyzed, with focus on its typological classification, comparing it with other existing institutes in the Brazilian Law. Also comprising the present thesis is the contextualization of the knock-for-knock's dissemination, supported - to a large extent - by the need to clearly allocate liabilities in highly technological, cash intensive and risky business. The knock-for-knock s main features, inasmuch as the elements that should be mitigated in order to incorporate the knock-for-knock as per precedents and academic literature on limitation of liability, are also presented.
