Six decades of immersion within the North American energy sector.

BP Capital is an SEC-registered investment advisor with decades of combined energy investing experience. We seek to build portfolios that preserve capital throughout the energy cycle while providing investors with exposure to the unique technologically-driven growth taking place in the United States oil and gas industry.

We leverage our teams’ decades of experience in operating oil and gas assets to shape our energy and core midstream investment processes. Furthermore, we benefit from BP Capital’s legacy as an innovator and investor seeking to stimulate domestic consumption of abundant, domestic natural gas.

The pillars of the BP Capital legacy — disciplined research, domain expertise, and deep, actionable industry relationships — are embodied in our culture, people and process. Our focus is discovering energy value chain opportunities and exploiting
them to create value for energy investors.

History

The BP Capital team has managed billions of dollars in public and private energy investments since the 1950s. The firm’s success was built by leveraging in-house research, extensive on-the-ground operating experience, and deep relationships across the energy industry.

Unique perspective in the energy investment landscape

We believe the United States is undergoing a once-in-a-generation transformation in the way it produces and uses energy as a result of new technologies that have unlocked a flood of new energy sources, leading to a technological disruption in the oil and gas industries.

Team Picture

We believe these new sources offer North American companies significant and lasting advantages over global competitors. We further believe that this energy transformation ushers in an American energy revolution and industrial renaissance that offers new MLP investment opportunities that the BP Capital Fund Advisors team is uniquely positioned to capitalize on.

The BP Capital Team

 

The BP Capital team brings a wealth of energy sector operational and investment expertise, plus deep, actionable relationships. Our talented and accomplished team is well positioned at the front-lines of what we believe will be a multi-decade phenomenon, and are focused on leveraging our skills, experience and unique positioning to identify, qualify and exploit opportunities to create value for the energy investor.
