MidOcean Energy secured a $120 million investment from The Arab Energy Fund as the EIG-backed company continues expanding its global LNG portfolio and capital raise efforts.

(P&GJ) — MidOcean Energy has secured a $120 million equity investment from The Arab Energy Fund as the EIG-backed company continues raising capital to expand its global liquefied natural gas portfolio.

The investment is part of MidOcean’s broader equity raise initiative, which is targeting up to $2 billion from new investors to support growth across the LNG sector.

MidOcean said the latest investment strengthens its investor base as the company pursues a strategy centered on building a diversified global LNG business with long-term supply exposure.

R. Blair Thomas, chairman of MidOcean and CEO of EIG, said the investment reflects continued confidence in the company’s LNG growth strategy and could support broader energy infrastructure collaboration opportunities in the Middle East.

MidOcean CEO De la Rey Venter said the additional capital positions the company to pursue identified LNG expansion opportunities and further diversify its portfolio.

The Arab Energy Fund said the investment aligns with its focus on energy security and long-term infrastructure investment, noting LNG continues to play a significant role in global energy supply.

MidOcean was formed and is managed by EIG, an institutional investor focused on energy and infrastructure projects globally.
