Our Strategy

Scout Energy Partners seeks to bring deep experience, technology and financial strength to each energy asset we operate.

Our Unique Approach

Scout and its affiliates directly operate the assets purchased by the funds we manage, without the intermediary structure of underlying portfolio companies. We believe that this integrated strategy is ideally suited for existing cash-flowing productive assets, and facilitates more predictable returns, yields distributable cash throughout market cycles, mitigates expense drag and return dilution and decreases the reliance on exit markets to achieve overall performance objectives. Our core focus is on the acquiring and optimizing of operated upstream assets and associated midstream infrastructure that seek to generate risk-adjusted outcomes.

Through this strategy, we seek to provide investors with direct real asset exposure, spending power preservation, cash yield and inflation and geopolitical risk mitigation.

Scout believes it has unique advantages that allow the firm to achieve attractive outcomes on behalf of our investors.

We have a formal underwriting process and a dedicated and experienced team that helps streamline the identification, prioritization and acquisition of these opportunities.

What We Look For

Mature assets with existing production and cash-flowing reserves

Shallow, proven reservoirs with well-established infrastructure and predictable production forecasts that have identifiable improvement opportunities

Geologically and geographically diverse assets, matching our production profile, in locations where Scout has operations or development experience.

We generally avoid hotly contested areas, offshore/water, urbanized or dense population centers and acreage-rich assets dependent on upside to generate returns
