About The Team
Ashurst Perkins Coie's top-tier Asian Projects, Energy, Environment & Resources team specialises in complex, high value and first in kind cross-border transactions in the energy and infrastructure sector across Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
We are particularly focused on renewables, energy storage, EV (and related supply chains), biofuels as well as LNG and LNG to power, but also advise on infrastructure projects such as water and transportation infrastructure and digital infrastructure such as data centres.

We operate as a tight-knit integrated team across our Asian offices and regularly cross-staff our transactions with lawyers from the Projects, Energy, Environment & Resources Team in Jakarta, Seoul and Tokyo. Given the wide geographical remit of our practice, we also regularly work with our Australian, Middle Easter and European offices.
