Midstream industry veterans Rance Fromme, Rick Adams and William Brod are joining forces to form Tivoli Midstream, which they say unites 70 years of combined terminal, midstream, logistics, chemical and energy experience.
The new Tivoli terminal and storage platform, which is backed by equity partner Energy Spectrum Capital, will seek to acquire, construct, manage and optimize strategic terminals and storage logistics in superior hub locations, the group said. Management already boasts operations experience in overseeing marine terminals, production plant logistics and handling more than 200 different chemical products, refined products, crude oil, renewable products and dry-bulk commodities.
“Despite the pandemic and volatile commodities markets, we believe there are significant opportunities to build and manage a portfolio of storage and terminal assets,” Fromme said. “Tivoli was formed to fill this need in the market and brings an exceptional record of safety and commitment to the industry and its customer partners.”
Headquartered in Houston TX, Tivoli maintains close proximity to refineries and chemical plants in the gulf coast region.
“This is a tremendous opportunity for Energy Spectrum to partner with an industry-leading management team,” said Mike Mayon, partner at Energy Spectrum. “The Tivoli team is a proven operator of storage and terminal assets with a superior safety record. We look forward to building a world-class logistics services company with Rance and his team.”
Fromme brings more than 21 years of management and operations experience in the midstream and petrochemical industry. Previously, he held senior positions with The Dow Chemical Company and Oiltanking in the United States and internationally. As president and CEO of Oiltanking North America, he led the growth of the North American business and focused on improving health, safety and environmental (HSE) and operational performance. Joining Fromme, Tivoli’s management team consists of the following:
- Brod, chief financial officer, a certified public accountant with 30 years of experience in the energy and power sectors.
- Adams, chief commercial officer, a seasoned commercial and operations executive with more than 20 years of industry expertise. He is responsible for establishing commercial relationships and providing market intelligence to drive growth initiatives.
