Oil & gas
The oil and gas industry is changing rapidly. New extraction techniques,
price instability and geopolitical complexities all present significant
challenges. We advise some of the world’s largest energy organisations on the issues
arising in these complex markets and are known for providing forward-thinking
solutions to their business needs.
Our clients include national and international oil
companies, independents, lenders, sponsors, export credit agencies and
governmental bodies. The work we do for them includes groundbreaking mandates
on some of their most important and technically challenging initiatives, such
as:
- advising on all aspects of
E&P work;
- advising on many of the
largest disputes and arbitrations;
- separation of upstream and
downstream businesses of complex multinational organisations;
- sanctions advice in times
of geopolitical tension and instability; and
- advising majors and
supermajors on crisis management.
We’re able to draw on an exceptionally wide range
of skills not only from our oil and gas team, but also our award-winning
practice groups (M&A and finance, international arbitration, tax,
antitrust, competition and dispute resolution). What’s more, our strong global
network means we’re able to react quickly to client needs wherever and whenever
they need us.
