DLA Piper provided legal advice to Uniper Group regarding the sale of its crude oil processing and marine fuel trading business in the United Arab Emirates. A consortium composed of Montfort Group and the Private Office of Sheikh Ahmed Dalmook Al Maktoum is set to acquire all the shares of Uniper Energy DMCC, a subsidiary of Uniper. However, the sale is still subject to certain conditions precedent and is expected to conclude in the next few months.

The business includes the operation of a crude oil processing facility in the Port of Fujairah and a trade office located in Dubai. The Uniper Energy Fujairah fuel oil production facility has a fuel oil production capacity of five million tons per year and a crude processing capacity of two mega-barrels per month.
