This paper provides an overview of the legal framework for offshore hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation. Apart from the solutions from the Croatian law, the paper includes examples of solutions in the subject matter from several selected comparative laws. These are mostly countries from the Adriatic, i.e. Mediterranean area. In that sense, the provisions of legal sources of Italian, Greek and Montenegrin law are studied. Apart from the distribution of competence between international, national and/or legal framework of the European Union, the paper emphasises the need for an integrated approach to the use and protection of the sea, as well as the establishment of mechanisms for cooperation between countries. It also indicates the issue of liability for the damage due to sea pollution from offshore facilities. In conclusion, it states the similarities and differences of the legal framework for offshore hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation in the selected countries. It indicates the need for the application of quality solutions in the subject matter, which is in accordance with the European integrated policy.
