The Alantra team included Steve Currie and Jeremy Harrison, Head of Industrials. Steve Currie, Partner of Alantra Corporate Finance, the UK M&A advisory business of Alantra, and lead advisor on the transaction commented: “We are delighted to have advised Chevron’s management team on their successful deal.

We have had a great development as a company and in partnership with Triton we believe we will be able to continue our strategic journey to create an even stronger value proposition.”
