We Help Customers Excel in Energy Management

Natural Gas Managment

Katrina Energy manages a significant natural gas portfolio. We have access to pipeline system electronic bulletin boards and receive daily flow readings directly from the pumpers and gaugers that monitor supply on a real-time basis. Our experienced team can manage your entire natural gas portfolio or a portion of your production. We design seamless, reliable and results-oriented outsourcing strategies that address both customer and market needs.

Crude Oil Managment

Katrina Energy represents producers in obtaining the highest possible lease sales price from creditworthy buyers. Our logistical trading support and customized price hedging strategies offer customers a broad range of risk management alternatives. For producers who have international interests and need specific guidance on issues that are relevant to those markets, Katrina can help to connect these clients with the right partners.

Energy Marketing

Katrina Energy Marketing is an industry leader in upstream development, supply management, product marketing and transportation logistics. We purchase and sell natural gas and crude oil throughout the eastern United States, benefiting from a well-established energy network that generates real-time information about regional markets and industry conditions. Katrina Energy works closely with consumers to alleviate many steps in the energy purchasing equation. With our assistance, clients can purchase all of their energy requirements from a single supplier. In addition, we are able to arrange long term or monthly supply contracts and then schedule physical delivery through the interstate pipeline network that services the Eastern United States. By assuming many purchasing functions, our goal is to free you to focus on your core business needs.

Marketing

Katrina Energy moves gas volumes on most interstate and intrastate pipelines and uses a number of transportation agreements such as pooling, balancing and cash-out agreements to meet contractual delivery dates. Our risk strategists apply fixed pricing, index-based pricing, and NYMEX instruments such as hedging, forward pricing, and straddle strategies, to derive the most competitive pricing strategies for customers (see Katrina Project Finance for more information).
