Thinking legally & logistically12 April 2024
By Fiona Thomson and Dwynwen Lewis
The energy landscape is changing fast. Managing the shift from traditional energy to renewables, and navigating the ever-evolving legislative environment and growing competition demands knowledge and expertise. With more than five decades of experience, we are the trusted guide to clients across the UK, the Middle East, and beyond.
Broad in experience, we work across the energy sector in the UK and internationally. In the UK we advise some of the largest and most innovative developers, helping them to successfully provide district heating networks, ESCO concessions and utility connections. Further afield, we have deep expertise and a long track record in the Middle East, where our work is already taking an important shift to solar energy and energy efficiency.
We advise on everything from nuclear projects and large-scale thermal power projects through to district heat networks, renewables, energy efficiency and utility connections. Practical and hands-on, we have an intrinsic understanding of all aspects of energy projects - from initial strategy and risks management, to procurement and tendering, management of funder requirements and the construction and operational phases. This, coupled with our extensive experience advising on the full range of enabling documents (including consortium arrangements, shareholder agreements, project agreements, concessions, financing documents and EPC and O&M contracts) gives our clients a clear commercial advantage.
Our work in the oil & gas sectors covers both up, down and mid stream projects and takes in advising on concessions, production sharing agreements, pipelines and the sale and purchase of energy all the way from extraction to the petrol pump.
We’ve made it our mission to help clients fit in with new regulation, changing markets and rising targets while still delivering quality services and products and remaining profitable. Our knowledge of how the energy industry works and how deals are constructed helps to keep clients secure over horizons of several decades. Connected to specialists across our firm and globally, we are fluent in the energy sector from every angle and plugged into key systems, governments and authorities world-wide.
