Quantum Capital Group has acquired Caerus Oil and Gas for about $1.8 billion, including liabilities.
Houston, Texas-based Quantum announced the deal's closing in a statement on Monday. Bloomberg News reported in June that Quantum would buy the Rocky Mountain oil and gas company. It’s doing the deal through portfolio companies QB Energy and Koda Resources.
QB Energy is acquiring Caerus's producing upstream assets, gathering and compression midstream assets, and all other assets in the Piceance Basin. Koda is taking a similar set of assets in the Uinta basin.
“The Piceance assets represent the largest single asset base atop the second largest gas resource in the continental U.S.,” Roger Biemans, chief executive officer of QB Energy, said in a statement.
Caerus is backed by Oaktree Capital Management, Anschutz Investment Co., and Old Ironsides Energy. This deal is a relatively rare example of a so-called secondary buyout in U.S. oil and gas, where corporate buyers have typically acquired private equity-backed assets.
