The firm has a strong emphasis on investing in mature, producing assets within the contiguous United States. Since its inception, Scout has deployed over $2 billion in equity capital across six funds and two co-investments, resulting in over 60 acquisitions totaling more than 4 million acres. Currently, they operate over 110,000 BOEPD and have more than 520 million reserve BOE.**Investing Thesis and Goals:** Scout Energy Partners aims to generate returns through cash flow distributions and exits while providing investors with long-term commodity price exposure to oil, gas, and natural gas liquids. The firm prioritizes cash-flowing, mature assets and emphasizes production optimization. Their strategy involves identifying potential acquisitions, underwriting and evaluating those assets, and operating them post-acquisition to enhance production and development opportunities. They avoid highly competitive and urbanized areas for their investments.**Philosophy:** Their operational philosophy hinges on leveraging deep experience, technology, and financial strength to ensure predictable returns and reduce risks associated with return dilution and expenses. Moreover, they have implemented an ESG policy addressing commitments to environmental, safety, cultural, ethical, and community engagements.
