NGP Capital Resources Company · Houston, TX United States ·(NASDAQ (GS): NGPC)

Exploration and production both tickle NGP Capital Resources' fancy, although it specifically engages in neither. Instead, it invests in small and midsized private energy companies -- with annual revenues of less than $500 million - that do. Established in 2004, NGP is attracted to exploration and production businesses, as well as midstream companies involved in the processing and transport of oil and gas products. Other investment opportunities include coal, power, electricity, energy services, and alternative energy providers. Investments usually range from $10 million to $50 million, and its portfolio consists primarily of energy companies exploring and producing in the Gulf of Mexico and mostly southern states. To read the full description, subscribe now.
