Eversheds Sutherland has provided legal counsel to Natixis Bank and Arab Petroleum Investments Corporation (APICORP) as lenders in the consortium’s acquisition of two waste management facilities of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) Refining in the Ruwais Industrial Area of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

The Eversheds Sutherland team was led by Middle East partner and head of projects Ashley Halewood. He was supported by partners Zeid Hanania and Sindhura Swaminathan, counsel Louis-Jerome Laisney, principal associate Steve Jennings, senior associates Adite Aloke and Gaurav Jain, associate Saed Obeidat, and trainee Fawzi Mashal.
