About Us
What can I tell you? It’s teamwork, but simpler, more pleasant and more productive.
Reliance Energy Partners is a hub firm. A key business in a constellation of independent businesses tethered to one another to make the most effective use of the organisational strengths of each. Cooperative relationships between these businesses can be the source of dramatic competitive strength.
Reliance Energy Partners works on various projects using different Cooperative Firms. Projects span from domestic to international markets in the oil and gas industry. Cooperative firms are selected on the basis of value they bring to the project as a whole.
Our focus is on partnership and investing in oil and gas exploration and field development opportunities.
