Hormuz Straits Partnership

HSP is established in Fujairah, one of the Middle East’s leading crude and refined products storage and shipping hubs. HSP has a deep network in the trading and oil logistics sectors ranging from niche privately-owned players to global corporates. The firm’s advisory service connects clients with investors who have shown a track record of successfully funding through the economic cycle.
