Oil & Gas

Transition finance and risk mitigation for hydrocarbon assets

Financing across upstream, midstream, and downstream oil and gas, and the domestic supply obligations attached.

Discuss your sector mandate with our South African team.

Overview

Transition finance and risk mitigation for hydrocarbon assets

We advise NOCs, IOCs, and investors on financing upstream, midstream, and transition assets while managing regulatory, environmental, and geopolitical exposure.

African oil and gas carries obligations beyond the field: domestic supply, local content, and revenue arrangements with the state. Financing must work with those terms, and increasingly with international capital that is narrowing its appetite for the sector.
