Quantum 以 18 亿美元收购 Rockies E&P Caerus 石油和天然气

私募股权公司 Quantum Capital Group 完成了对 Caerus Oil and Gas 的收购。Quantum 将把 Caerus 在科罗拉多州和犹他州的资产分给两家投资组合公司。

专注于落基山脉的生产商Caerus Oil and Gas通过两笔交易以 18 亿美元的价格出售给Quantum Capital Group 。

此次交易涉及 Caerus 的上游和中游资产,横跨科罗拉多州西部的 Piceance 盆地和犹他州东部的 Uinta 盆地。交易还包括承担 Caerus 的资产支持证券和其他债务。

Caerus 由一个私人投资者集团所有,其中包括 Oaktree Capital Management、The Anschutz Corporation 和 Old Ironsides Energy。

皮桑斯盆地

新成立的 Quantum 投资组合公司 QB Energy 将收购和管理 Caerus 在 Piceance Basin 的资产基础,该公司在该地持有约 600,000 英亩土地。

QB Energy 将由行业资深人士 Roger Biemans 领导,并担任总裁兼首席执行官。

Biemans 表示:“Piceance 资产是美国大陆第二大天然气资源之上最大的单一资产基础。”“B Energy 正在收购一个拥有数十年可重复钻井库存的浅层递减生产基地,并打算雇用 Caerus 现有的一批有能力的劳动力,以确保油田和当地社区的连续性。”

Quantum Buys Rockies E&P Caerus Oil and Gas for $1.8B

Private equity firm Quantum Capital Group closed an acquisition of Caerus Oil and Gas. Quantum is splitting Caerus’ assets in Colorado and Utah between two portfolio companies.

Rockies-focused producer Caerus Oil and Gas sold to Quantum Capital Group through two transactions valued at $1.8 billion.

The transactions include Caerus’ footprint of upstream and midstream assets spanning across the Piceance Basin in western Colorado and the Uinta Basin in eastern Utah. The deals also include the assumption of Caerus’ asset-backed securities and other liabilities.

Caerus is owned by a private investor group including Oaktree Capital Management, The Anschutz Corporation and Old Ironsides Energy.

Piceance Basin

A newly formed Quantum portfolio company, QB Energy, will acquire and manage Caerus’ asset base in the Piceance Basin, where the company held approximately 600,000 acres.

QB Energy will be led by industry veteran Roger Biemans, who will serve as president and CEO.

“The Piceance assets represent the largest single asset base atop the second largest gas resource in the continental U.S.,” Biemans said. “QB Energy is acquiring a shallow-decline production base with several decades of repeatable drilling inventory and intends to employ a number of Caerus’ existing capable workforce to ensure continuity in both the field and local communities.”

Uinta Basin

KODA Resources, an existing Quantum portfolio company, will acquire Caerus’ portfolio of approximately 160,000 acres in the Uinta Basin, the companies announced Aug. 19. KODA will also pick up Caerus’ gathering and compression midstream assets in the Uinta.

“KODA has spent years decoding subsurface intricacies of the Uinta gas window, and we believe we are uniquely qualified to assume operatorship and further develop this high-quality production base adjacent to our existing acreage,” said Osman Apaydin, CEO of KODA Resources.

The Uinta Basin has seen increased drilling and consolidation activity this year. In June, SM Energy and Northern Oil & Gas (NOG) teamed up to acquire leading private Uinta producer XCL Resources for $2.55 billion.

NOG will own a 20% undivided stake in XCL valued at $510 million; SM will own the remaining 80% and operate the XCL assets.
