Marine Petroleum Trust Company Profile
Marine Petroleum Trust (NASDAQ: MARPS) is a grantor trust that holds royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties. Rather than operating wells or selling energy products directly, the trust receives royalty payments based on production from the properties in which it has interests.
The trust’s interests are primarily associated with offshore oil and gas properties in the Gulf of Mexico, particularly areas off the coast of Louisiana. Its cash distributions are therefore tied to production volumes, commodity prices, operating activity by the property operators and the remaining economic life of the underlying reserves.
Marine Petroleum Trust was established in 1955 and is managed under the terms of its trust agreement.
