February 10, 2010 — Vinson & Elkins has won the prestigious title of "Energy & Natural Resources Team of the Year" at the Legal Business Awards 2010, for our work advising Sinopec International Petroleum Exploration and Production Company on its recent U.S.$8.8 billion takeover of Addax Petroleum. In this picture, Vinson & Elkins' partner François Feuillat (center) accepts the award at the ceremony. 
 
The annual Legal Business Awards celebrate the very best in the legal profession and are considered one of the most prestigious and highly respected awards in the legal calendar. The winner of this category had to have advised on trailblazing transactions that had significantly impacted the market relating to power, oil and gas, mining, or alternative energy.

The V&E team was led by China Practice partners Paul Deemer and David Blumental, with the assistance of partner François Feuillat on international securities issues. In addition, partners Alex Msimang and James Atkin provided valuable support to the team. Read Sinopec's final press release on the transaction here.
