Additionally, we cover geological and mining regulatory issues in the natural resources sector as well as regulatory advice for onshore and offshore wind farms. 

We are regularly instructed on high-impact and high-value transactions in the sector that include the transfer of energy assets as well as financing. Our project finance expertise in the energy sector is unmatched.
