Midstream energy coverage options
We can offer line sizes up to $250m on Company paper or $150m on Lloyd's paper.
We consider ourselves predominantly quota share (re)insurers.
We can write excess of loss layers.
We do not write a book of primary placements, but will write primary layers where we are able to write the excess layers as well.
We can write pure excess layers where the risk is within appetite and we are unable to take a line on the primary layer.
We do not write Fac RI primaries for other insurers.
Key coverages include:
- Onshore gas processing, storage, and distribution
- Terminals, tanks, and associated product in storage
