Our Firm congratulates Shell International on its epochal recent sale of Nigerian upstream oil onshore assets to Renaissance Africa Energy for approximately USD2.4bn. We advised Shell International on the sale.
In the eyes of many, this complex, long-running and demanding transaction is the most significant sale ever in the history of the Nigerian petroleum sector, and, indeed, any other sector of the Nigerian economy.
We thank deeply, and are honoured by, Shell International for choosing and trusting us. We are grateful to our lawyers and support personnel for their proficiency — their imagination, rigour, sophistication, diligence and resolve.
The work called for expertise and depth in areas of legal practice as wide-ranging as corporate, tax, competition, banking, petroleum sector regulation, employment law, and litigation.
