Clifford Chance advises lenders on MENA region's first sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) plant in Egypt

Thu, 27 Aug 2026 09:35:00 GMT

Shell will act as the plant's primary feedstock provider and sole offtaker, pursuant to a long-term take-or-pay offtake agreement, supporting the project's long-term commercial viability. Axens will provide its proprietary processing technology.

Located in the Sokhna Special Economic Zone in Egypt, the project is being developed with the support of sponsors Green Sky Capital Management, Al Mana Holding and Vision Invest. The facility is designed to produce 200,000 tonnes per annum of biofuels, including SAF and other green products and will utilise Hydroprocessed Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA) technology to convert waste-based feedstock into high-grade sustainable fuel. This will contribute to global aviation decarbonisation efforts and support the growth of Egypt's sustainable fuels industry.

Nicholas Wong, partner, commented: "For SAF to become a meaningful part of aviation's decarbonisation efforts, projects need access to capital at scale. This financing demonstrates how we are helping to bring together the right combination of lenders and commercial arrangements to support the development of SAF infrastructure and establish a bankable model for future projects in the region. We are delighted to support our valued clients, TAEF, QNB and Ninety One, and the project sponsors, on achieving another landmark transaction in the energy transition space."

Tom Capel, counsel, added: "SAF is still a developing market and technology so each successful project helps to build the bankability story in the market. As the first project-financed SAF facility in the region, this project sets important precedents, deepens the market's understanding of how SAF infrastructure can be developed and financed, and builds confidence across the sector. Transactions such as this demonstrate how the right combination of stakeholders can come together and execute meaningful energy transition projects at scale and with efficiency."

Partner Nicholas Wong and counsel Tom Capel led the Clifford Chance team, advising on all aspects of the financing, including the project's financing structure and related feedstock supply and offtake arrangements. They were supported by senior associates Thomas Hobbs-Martin and William Holmden, and associate Jacie Lim. Partner Matt Buchanan, counsel James Thornton and associate Jeanette Lee advised on construction, procurement and technology licensing matters.

As a leading adviser on sustainable fuels and energy transition projects globally, Clifford Chance has advised on landmark SAF and green fuels transactions across Asia Pacific, Europe and Latin America. These include advising ADB and IFC on the first project financing of a private-sector SAF facility in Asia Pacific, SkyNRG on the financing of the first facility in Europe dedicated solely to SAF production, and Acelen Renewables on Brazil's first integrated sustainable fuels project.

Thu, 27 Aug 2026 14:07:49 GMT

The firm advised on the establishment of MUFG Bank, Ltd.'s US$4.6 billion structured notes issuance programme for the issuance of a variety of different structured note products in various jurisdictions worldwide, its subsequent update and expansion in territorial scope and the update of MUFG Securities EMEA plc's own note programme to allow for the issuance of equity- and index-linked notes.

The transactions support MUFG's expansion of its structured notes offering to institutional investors and MUFG clients across EMEA and Asia (excluding Japan), extending a business that had historically been focused on the Japanese market. They also mark a significant step in the continued development of MUFG's international markets platform and broader funding capabilities.

Tokyo Co-Managing Partner Leng-Fong Lai commented, "One of the most interesting aspects of this transaction was helping MUFG transform a business with deep roots in Japan into a platform for international growth. It creates a foundation for the group to expand its structured notes offering to institutional investors across multiple markets."

Partner Matthew Ball added, " As investor demand for structured note products continues to grow, we're seeing many institutions look at how they can expand their product offerings and reach a broader international investor base. Finding ways for MUFG to leverage their existing securities issuance platforms and procedures to quickly and efficiently achieve that capability, was a key driver for this transaction."

Advising on the transactions required close coordination across multiple jurisdictions, as well as the firm's experience in complex structured notes programmes, understanding of the MUFG group structure and existing issuance platforms, and knowledge of relevant disclosure and regulatory regimes.

Drawing on the firm's debt capital markets, structured products and financial regulatory capabilities, the transactions were led by Leng-Fong Lai and Matthew Ball, supported by Reiko Sakimura and Melissa Bleackley (Tokyo); Monica Sah, Matteo Sbraga, Paul Lenihan, Ayan Koshal and Cameron Dwyer (London); Avrohom Gelber and Gil Shauly (New York); Lena Ng and Audrina Keng (Singapore); Andre Da Roza (Hong Kong); Kimi Liu* and Jessy Cheng (Beijing); and Jack Hardman and Josh Morrison (Dubai).
