Energy – Oil and Gas

Oil and gas clients have long trusted Simpson Thacher for advice on financings, investments, acquisitions and dispositions. The expansion of our oil and gas practice in 2011 with the opening of our Houston office was a natural outgrowth of our long-established energy practice and has enhanced our ability to provide exceptional client service.
