Position
Keith is a Director and leads the UK Oil and Gas Group. He specialises in English corporate law with a focus on private company M&A, private equity, joint ventures and corporate restructuring projects.
Keith has over 15 years’ experience advising clients on global M&A transactions and restructuring projects in the Energy and Oil & Gas sector, both on the UKCS and in the CIS (predominantly Russia, Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan).

Secondments to ExxonMobil and BP have developed Keith’s deep understanding of the corporate and commercial legal needs of clients in this sector, and he was instrumental in PwC’s recent BP panel appointment.
