--FILE--View of a gas station of CNOOC (China National Offshore Oil Corporation) in Anyang city, central Chinas Henan province, 9 January 2013. The Chinese energy company China National Offshore Oil Corp. said it sanctioned one of its top lawyers for conflicts of interest with Baker & McKenzie, a U.S. law firm that has often represented it and that in Beijing is led by the woman¯s husband. In an email sent Monday (17 November 2014) to at least two major international law firms amid widespread industry talk about the relationship, Cnooc said it found that Karen Kang Xin violated unspecified national regulations and its corporate policies by accepting trips to Europe and Australia paid for by Baker, and that she subsequently helped the law firm win legal work. The note, which was reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, said Ms. Kang dated and then married Baker¯s chief representative in Beijing, Stanley Jia Dianan, and did not withdraw from the conflict of interest after the marriage.
