The head of energy and infrastructure at Goldman Sachs has recently identified Lehigh Gas Partners (LGP), EQT Midstream Partners (EQM) and Oiltanking Partners (OILT) as three small master limited partnerships, or MLPs, with strong future growth prospects.

Over the last 52 weeks, the Alerian MLP ETF (AMLP) has risen by just 1.8% while Leigh Gas Partners, EQT Midstream and Oiltanking Partners have climbed 19%, 87% and 56% respectively.

Despite the rally, the three could continue growing on the back of significant top and bottom line growth.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Oiltanking Partners (OILT) is a little-known master limited partnership, or MLP, poised for long term growth.

Oiltanking, with a market cap of nearly $3 billion, provides terminaling, storage and transportation services to other energy companies. Although its shares are currently looking expensive, they will likely continue going higher due to ongoing expansion work and a favorable business environment that will fuel its growth.
