Our Energy and Infrastructure practice

A top-tier projects and project finance practice

Norton Rose Fulbright’s projects and project finance practice is one of the largest in the world, advising on US$176 billion in transactions in the last three years (IJ Global, 2020).

Our global team represents lenders, sponsors, developers, institutional investors, contractors, operators and government entities in major domestic and cross-border projects and project financings.

We provide our clients with a comprehensive and integrated approach that draws on our specialists in all relevant areas of law. Our lawyers are recognised for their ability to combine technical skills with a commercial, results-oriented approach that enables us to manage risk and ensure that projects reach a timely and cost-effective financial close.

A full service, lifecycle approach

We advise across the energy and infrastructure project lifecycle from greenfield planning and development, to mergers and acquisitions (both public and private), capital raisings, operation and maintenance, refinancings and restructurings and eventual disposal.

As shifts in demand, regulatory changes and technological developments present the inevitable challenges to long term projects, our integrated dispute resolution teams ensure that processes to manage and mitigate risk are embedded throughout the project lifecycle and that when issues arise, we can offer our clients strategic and commercial solutions for even the most distressed projects.
