Ropes & Gray has been shortlisted in the Banking & Finance Team of the Year category at the British Legal Awards for its work advising New York based private equity firm American Industrial Partners (AIP) on the financing of its acquisition of the two leading Norwegian-headquartered wellboat businesses, AquaShip and Intership.

This was a significant transaction as it marked AIP’s first large European financing of scale and created one of the largest and most diversified aqua service vessel operators globally across Europe, North America and South America.

The financing deal team consisted of partner Alex Robb, finance counsel Ana Biloglav, associates Sean Darling, Adjoa Kwarteng, Kahill Sarronwala and Alma Yasin, trainees Oscar Burman and Imogen Galilee, and derivatives partner Anna Lawry.

The British Legal Awards recognise the outstanding contributions of legal professionals, firms, and teams shaping the landscape of law in the UK. The results will be announced in November.
