Miranda has long-standing experience in the international oil and gas industry. Since the very early days of the Firm, oil and gas has been vital to our practice. Through advising in hundreds of transactions, projects and other oil and gas developments, Miranda has amassed a wealth of knowledge in this industry that is unsurpassed by any other firm in the jurisdictions we cover. The breadth of our practice and our experience with a diversity of jurisdictions and oil and gas companies enables us to provide clients with the most sound and effective advice and representation. Our client base includes more than 80 oil and gas producers and oilfield contractors worldwide.

The oil and gas lawyers at Miranda draw on both their own highly developed experience and the knowledge of their colleagues from other practices to provide our clients with unusually broad service and advice. We regularly assemble teams of lawyers from different practices tailored to the particular needs of clients in the most challenging and sophisticated transactions and projects. In addition to their strong technical capabilities, the oil and gas lawyers at Miranda have hands on experience in most aspects of the day-to-day operational issues faced by petroleum producers, LNG producers, refiners, marketers, amongst others. Some of our practitioners are regularly invited to speak at industry conferences and seminars, in addition to providing commentary in the media.
