Riverbend Energy Group (“Riverbend”), on behalf of certain of its affiliates and numerous institutional investors, announced today that it has completed the sale of its equity interests in Riverbend Oil & Gas VI, LLC, Riverbend Oil & Gas VI-B, LLC and Riverbend Oil & Gas VIII, LLC. Total purchase price for the transaction was $1.8 billion based on a May 1, 2022, effective date.

The divested portfolios represent a substantial, diversified asset base of non-operated interests across the Bakken/Three Forks, Utica, Fayetteville and Haynesville. As of the effective date, these properties produced approximately 47,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day from over 11,000 wells.

The close of this transaction marks the successful monetization for Riverbend of three of Riverbend’s five active traditional energy portfolios. The company continues to manage and grow funds VII and IX, which target operated Midland Basin properties (Riverbend VII) and mineral and royalty interests across leading shale plays (Riverbend IX). Additionally, the company is pursuing non-operated working interest acquisitions in the Midland, Delaware, and Williston oil basins and Barnett, Fayetteville, Haynesville and Marcellus/Utica natural gas basins (Riverbend XI and/or successors). These hydrocarbon asset focused prospects are complimented by the growing energy transition opportunities that Riverbend is actively evaluating (Riverbend X).

“Our team has delivered a great result for a group of esteemed institutional investors once again through the execution of our proven acquisition and asset management process, leveraging our proprietary systems and in-house developed technology to aggregate high value assets,” said Randy Newcomer, Jr., Riverbend’s CEO. “We have now successfully monetized seven separate funds since our founding in 2003, establishing a consistent and enviable track record of value creation that reflects the excellence of our various disciplines as well as the grit and determination of our team to unearth opportunities in a highly volatile and dynamic business environment. We will continue to provide similar investment opportunities to institutional investors in the traditional energy business, alongside our rapidly expanding energy transition segment.”
