HOUSTON, 17 February 2016 – Mercuria Energy, one of the world’s largest independent and integrated energy and commodities groups, announced today that it has acquired a Rocky Mountain crude supply and marketing business from Enterprise Crude Oil LLC, an affiliate of Enterprise Products Partners L.P.
Mercuria acquired a marketing team and assets in Wyoming, North Dakota, Colorado and Montana. With the transaction, Mercuria will continue to deliver upon Enterprise’s strong historical ties with local producers to ensure volume flow and superior access to competitive markets.
“We believe this marketing business is a unique opportunity to further develop our presence in the American crude oil business,” said Daniel Jaeggi, President of Mercuria Energy. “Mercuria is a proven reliable partner to counterparties and always delivers a competitive price and product.
