“Uisdean Vass has represented Speedwell Energy Limited from our inception and has been a great advisor throughout. He has extensive knowledge of the oil and gas industry and has played a central and extremely important role in our success acting as our quasi in-house legal counsel. His professionalism and excellent reputation within the oil and gas community has been invaluable to us. He advised Speedwell on the original P2341 licence application and went on to advise us on multiple financial negotiations…”

“I have been working with Uisdean on deals for over 15 years. We have done things like an AIM flotation of a UKCS new entrant, the financing of a Farmout arrangement onshore California, an asset acquisition in Azerbaijan and others. Most recently, we have been working on two UKCS deals, one for gas in the Southern North Sea and another for oil in the Central North Sea. I regard Uisdean as being a superb oil and gas lawyer, who is prompt, commercial and who really understands his industry. He is the best oil and gas lawyer that I have come across”
