SEPLAT Petroleum Listing Featured in Corporate INTL 

Winston & Strawn’s representation of SEPLAT Petroleum Development Company Plc was highlighted in Corporate INTL’s “Route to the UK” feature, published October 2014.

The Winston team worked with SEPLAT since the beginning of the company’s journey, from its initial equity investment from Maurel et Prom, through its first debt financing and acquisition of oil licenses in Nigeria (advising on both the M&A and debt financing for the acquisitions). Winston worked with SEPLAT on pre-IPO financing rounds, conversion to a PLC, and its eventual IPO and dual listing on both the London main market and the Lagos stock exchange in Nigeria earlier this year. SEPLAT is the first Nigerian company to list on the London Stock Exchange, and the ground-breaking deal raised $500 million for the company.
