For more than 30 years, Merit Energy Company, LLC (“Merit”) has remained one of the largest private oil and gas operators in the United States and has served as a direct energy investment for pension plans, hospitals, endowments, family offices, and foundations.

Our disciplined approach to acquiring, operating, and developing high-quality, mature oil and gas assets has driven our success and is our roadmap for the future. Our strategy has served us well through all price cycles, enabling us to build a company where our employees spend decades, and our Partners continue to invest.

Merit has operated through the highs and lows the oil and gas industry has presented. We have adapted to continuously changing environments and successfully responded when faced with challenges. Looking ahead we will continue to focus on the details and experiences that define our achievements; the future is promising.

Merit’s acquisition approach begins with our highly talented, technical, in-house team. Our business development team focuses on high quality, onshore, mature oil and gas assets throughout the United States and thoroughly reviews both on and off market opportunities. Merit’s ability to close with cash and take over operations immediately has consistently presented Merit as an attractive buyer, particularly in an environment of less financial certainty.

Our strategy also includes an ongoing divestiture program. Merit typically divests assets for three primary reasons: strategic opportunities, partnership terminations, or underperforming assets.
