Thyssen Petroleum

Thyssen Petroleum, founded in 2011, is a small privately-held oil and natural gas exploration and production company with production in Louisiana and Alaska. Thyssen Petroleum’s main US office is in Houston, Texas. The company is securely financed by the holding company of the Thyssen-Bornemisza family, one of Europe’s oldest and most distinguished industrial families.  It owns a major shareholding in the NYSE-listed IHS Markit Ltd., the critical information provider to the oil and gas industry with a market capitalization of approximately $20 billion (USD).

Thyssen Petroleum has an operating company in Alaska (“Brooks Range Petroleum Company”) and has a representative office in Monaco. Our formula is to grow the company by leveraging our core competencies and operational expertise.  Thyssen Petroleum’s proficiency in these key areas has resulted in significant growth over the last few years and has transitioned us from an exploration company to an exploration, operation and production company.
