Focused on major infrastructure projects, particularly in the energy and resources sectors, Muller advises clients on the preparation and negotiation of off-take agreements, supply arrangements, connection agreements, development, and construction-related agreements. Advising consortiums, financiers, equity investors and contractors tendering for infrastructure projects throughout Australia and New Zealand, Draper focuses on the delivery of major projects and infrastructure.

Rennie brings experience on traditional limited-recourse project finance structures in the energy, resources, and infrastructure sectors.
