On November 24, 2025, Mercuria Energy Group Ltd. proudly announced the closing of its Asian Syndicated Revolving Credit Facilities for 2025, amounting to over USD 2.3 billion across U.S. dollar and Chinese yuan tranches.

This transaction not only solidifies Mercuria's financial prowess but also underscores the unwavering confidence that both global and regional lenders have in the company's disciplined liquidity management and expanding business footprint across Asia.
The arrangement of these facilities was supported by several notable Bookrunning Mandated Lead Arrangers, which included esteemed banks such as Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank PJSC, Bank of China Limited Singapore Branch, and several branches of China CITIC Bank. This collaborative effort indicates a robust backing from renowned institutions that play a pivotal role in shaping Mercuria’s funding strategy.
