During his time at White & Case, Bradshaw was involved in several high-profile transactions. He was part of a cross-jurisdictional team advising MidOcean Energy, a company managed by EIG, on its acquisition of Tokyo Gas’ stakes in major Australian LNG projects, including Gorgon, Pluto, and Queensland Curtis. He also co-led a US-Japan team representing Excelerate Energy in a 20-year LNG sale and purchase agreement with Venture Global LNG.
