Energy and Alternative Energy Opportunities Investment Strategies

Energy Opportunities originated as a 50% / 50% venture between Orleans Capital Management (portfolio manager) and Simmons & Company International (research sub-advisor) that began in 2000. Its investment strategy was based on the thesis of relentless growing energy demand in non-OECD regions coupled with increasing supply-related challenges. The key investment professionals have been Farrell Crane (portfolio manager with OCM) and Scott Gill (co-head research with SCI).
