Clifford Chance advises OMERS Infrastructure on €770 million debt facilities for Borealis Spain Parent B.V.

Global law firm Clifford Chance has advised OMERS Infrastructure on the successful close of €770 million debt facilities at Borealis Spain Parent B.V., the holding company for OMERS’ approximately 25% stake in Exolum. Exolum is a Spanish-headquartered global energy logistics infrastructure company providing specialised solutions to support energy transition.

The company owns the transmission pipeline network spanning 4,000km in Spain and operates a 2,000km pipeline network in the UK. Exolum also owns 68 storage terminals with a total capacity of 11+ million cbm and serves over 48 airports worldwide – including Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, Madrid, Barcelona, Lisbon, Lima in Peru, and Charles de Gaulle – making it a global leader in aviation fuel infrastructure.

This transaction reflects strong market confidence in Exolum’s robust growth and diversification strategy, as well as OMERS’ long-term commitment to the sector.
