Windmill dunk into infrastructure private equity one day, which IB industry (Energy vs. P/U) is more practical?

The more thought I have put into it, the more curious I have become to explore infrastructure PE in the future due to the news we are seeing today surrounding the energy transition. If I want to work in NY and possibly a MF PE firm one day, does it matter if I were to choose working in Energy/O&G IB (HTX) vs P/U (NY)? Midstream O&G covers a broad set of verticals for infrastructure PE vs. P/U which already has a strong case behind it.
