Post Oak Energy Capital is continuing to roll out new portfolio companies across the Lower 48—including the Permian Basin and Haynesville Shale—with its latest move on Oct. 15 backing Utica liquids player Tiburon Oil & Gas Partners.
Since September, Post Oak Energy Capital has backed new portfolio companies in the Permian Basin and Haynesville Shale and made an equity commitment to Utica Shale E&P Tiburon Oil & Gas Partners.
Tiburon closed on an initial acquisition of leasehold in the liquids-rich portion of the Utica Shale in Ohio in conjunction with the equity backing by Post Oak, along with commitments from Tiburon’s management team and other investors.
Post Oak has recently backed several teams, most recently committing equity behind Delaware Basin-focused Ichthys Energy Partners. Ichthys has not yet made an acquisition. In September, Post Oak also backed Quantent Energy Partners LLC, which completed an initial acquisition of natural gas assets in the Haynesville Shale.

US tells Israel to let more aid trucks into Gaza. In a letter to the Israeli government sent this week, the Biden administration said Israel has to “reverse the downward humanitarian trajectory” in Gaza or risk losing US military aid. US leaders warned of “implications” for future weapons supplied to Israel if the country doesn’t boost aid truck crossings in Gaza and facilitate other aid, including allowing the Red Cross to visit Palestinian detainees in Israel who are reportedly being abused. The US gave Israel 30 days to stop obstructing aid crossings and “demonstrate a sustained commitment” to halting the humanitarian crisis. Following two weeks with no aid truck crossings, some US officials fear that many people in northern Gaza could die of starvation within the week.

Oil prices fell by 3% during Asian trading, driven by weakening demand...
Oil prices fell by 3% during Asian trading, driven by weakening demand and a media report indicating that Israel may avoid targeting Iranian oil infrastructure, easing supply disruption fears.
