Bond Dickinson and Norton Rose Fulbright have been appointed to the Crown Estate's slimmed down energy and infrastructure panel.
The appointments to the new panel, which run until April 2016, follow a competitive tender process.
The former line-up included legacy Bond Pearce and legacy Norton Rose, both of which have since gone through mergers to form Bond Dickinson and Norton Rose Fulbright respectively.
The previous panel line-up also included Burges Salmon, US firm Hunton & Williams and Scots firm Anderson Strathern.
The new panel will see Bond Dickinson advise the Crown Estate on its marine aggregates business as well as on its interests in transmission and pipelines, while Norton Rose Fulbright will focus on advising in other areas including offshore wind, carbon capture and storage, wave and tidal energy.
Bond Dickinson chairman and Crown Estate relationship partner Nick Page said: "We have a longstanding relationship with the Crown Estate and we look forward to continuing to strengthen our relationship by making a contribution in key areas of The Crown Estate's business."
Norton Rose Fulbright Europe, Middle East and Asia chair Stephen Parish commented: "The UK offshore energy sector promises exciting developments in the coming years and we look forward to working closely with The Crown Estate so that it may achieve its ambitions and further such developments through its Energy and Infrastructure portfolio."
In 2010, Norton Rose advised The Crown Estate on a £100bn offshore wind farm project which could meet up to a quarter of the UK's electricity demand by 2020. Bond Pearce also played a role in the deal when advising Centrica Renewable Energy and the RES Group on the Irish Sea development.
