Blog Charting Opportunity in Midstream Energy North American oil and gas production will likely be a critical input to the global growth engine, and the midstream sector underpins this growth.
DOWNLOAD CHART With the balance sheet and financing challenges that had plagued the midstream sector since 2014 now largely in the rearview mirror, we believe oil and gas master limited partnerships (MLPs) appear poised to capitalize on the North American energy renaissance. Earnings for midstream energy companies have continued to rise despite volatility in oil prices, as the chart shows, reflecting their lower correlation to oil prices, greater exposure to production volume and ability to generate predictable revenue streams from long-lived assets. With demand for oil and natural gas likely to remain robust, we believe midstream energy now offers one of the more attractive secular growth stories among all asset classes, with support from a favorable – and much improved – entry point.
