We target asset-intensive platforms across the energy value chain, with a focus on operational leverage, defensible market positioning, and scalable infrastructure. Our investment mandate includes:
- Oilfield Services & Logistics Providers of mission-critical services to upstream operators, including drilling, completions, production support, and field logistics. We favor businesses with high utilization, recurring revenue, and basin-level density.
- Midstream Infrastructure & Gathering Systems Contracted assets with durable cash flows, strategic basin positioning, and expansion potential. Includes gathering, compression, and processing systems with fee-based economics.
- Water Infrastructure & Disposal Networks Scalable platforms managing treatment, transport, and disposal of produced water. We prioritize systems with regulatory defensibility, route density, and embedded customer relationships.
- Equipment Manufacturing & Maintenance Platforms Niche manufacturers and service providers supporting drilling, completions, and production. Focus on proprietary technologies, aftermarket revenue, and embedded distribution channels.
- Field Technology & Automation Software and hardware platforms digitizing the oilfield — including SCADA, IoT, predictive maintenance, and workflow automation. We back solutions with clear ROI, integration capability, and sector adoption.
- Operators & Lease Aggregation PDP-heavy portfolios with low decline curves, efficient operations, and scalable acreage positions. We selectively invest in operators with disciplined capex, strong reservoir data, and strategic exit optionality.
