Organización: East Cameron Gas

The SPV of East Cameron Partners LP. East Cameron Partners was incorporated in Houston, Texas as a private oil and gas exploration company in 2002 and acquired leasehold interests in oil and gas production, in federal oil and gas leases administered by Minerals and Management Services of the US Department of Interior (MMS)(Boustany (2006 )). The purpose of the originator was not shariah compliant financing per se. East Cameron Partners simply saw this as an affordable and flexible finance opportunity through which it could raise the funds needed to purchase of shares from its non-operating partner, Macquarie Bank who wished to sell its share in the business. Finding limited opportunities in conventional finance, the owner of the company judged issuing sukuk a better choice.
