Southcross Energy Partners LLC, Recovery of Investment Losses

Southcross Energy Partners LLC , Investigating Potential Claims 

The White Law Group is investigating the liability that FINRA registered brokerage firms may have for improperly selling high-risk oil and gas investments, like Southcross Energy Partners LLC, to its clients.

Southcross Energy Partners LLC has emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, according to a Feb. 3 press release. The company has recently made a move from a master limited partnership structure to an LLC, becoming a privately held company, according to the press release.

Southcross Energy Partners LP and its subsidiaries originally filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in April 2019. At the time, the main filing listed $610.45 million of total assets and $614.26 million of total debts for the MLP.

As part of the Chapter 11 process, Southcross sold its natural gas pipeline network in Corpus Christi, Texas, and pipelines and related assets in Mississippi and Alabama. Houston-based Kinder Morgan Inc. bought the Texas assets for $76 million.
