Having been totally screwed by certain U.S. energy trusts (Freeport McMoran, Mesa Offshore), I am wary of anything that promises a wonderful stream of income. Even BPT was a losing proposition some years ago when OPEC drove down crude prices. Best I can come up with is Energy Split, which spreads the risk over 17 (soon 16) trusts. In the past I have done very well with some U.S. trusts: PBT, SBR, SJT, and even BPT after it recovered. I do not hold any of these right now.
