King & Spalding LLP‘s senior bench was reduced by the relocation of Kelly Malone to the London office, and the departure of Richard Nelson to Mayer Brown International LLP’s London branch, though energy transactions and projects remain at the core of the Singapore’s strengths with a particularly formidable record in LNG, oil and gas, and further capabilities in renewables and hydrogen. The firm is active across the upstream, midstream and downstream oil and gas space, and has extensive experience in LNG offtake agreements, floating storage regasification units (FSRUs), LNG imports and LNG-to-power projects. It continues to advise a range of energy majors, national oil and gas companies and government-linked entities. Simon Cowled is hugely experienced in energy M&A and project development. Anthony Patten left the firm in September 2023.
