Alongside the investment, the Private Department and EIG have formed a strategic partnership aimed at capital aggregation, sourcing investments and developing institutional investment prospects within the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and certain other regional markets.<\/p>\n

This marks the Private Department\u2019s foray into the global LNG sector, coinciding with the start of a wider strategic collaboration with EIG, a company specialising in global energy and infrastructure investments.<\/p>\n

EIG CEO and MidOcean Energy chairman R. Blair Thomas said: \u201cWe are pleased to establish a strategic partnership with the Private Department.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis relationship combines EIG\u2019s global energy investment expertise with the Private Department\u2019s regional reach, institutional relationships and long-term investment perspective.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe this creates a powerful platform for capital formation and investment across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n

The partnership aims to identify and pursue additional investments across energy and related infrastructure sectors.<\/p>\n

EIG has described the investment as enhancing MidOcean Energy\u2019s institutional shareholder base.<\/p>\n

MidOcean Energy currently holds LNG assets across markets such as Canada, Australia and Latin America and intends to grow its portfolio using a disciplined investment strategy.<\/p>\n

The Private Department of Sheikh Mohammed bin Khalid Al Nahyan, based in Abu Dhabi, and its affiliate KSH Investments oversee a diversified investment and asset management platform.<\/p>\n

Their business activities focus on sourcing and developing long-term investments in a wide array of sectors and markets.<\/p>\n

Private Department of Sheikh Mohammed bin Khalid Al Nahyan executive managing director Matar Hamdan Al Ameri said: \u201cThis investment represents an important milestone in our strategy to establish long-term exposure to high-quality global infrastructure and energy assets and create opportunities for regional investors to participate alongside leading institutional partners.<\/p>\n

\u201cMidOcean provides access to a critical component of the global energy system through a diversified LNG platform, while our strategic partnership with EIG creates a foundation for future collaboration and investment opportunities across the region.\u201d<\/p>\n
