Riverbend Energy Group continues to rebuild its non-operated portfolio through dealmaking.

The company recently closed a non-op acquisition in the Permian’s Delaware Basin from its Riverbend XI fund, Business Development Manager Neel Huey said in a social media post.

Riverbend has closed 18 transactions in the past 22 months in the Delaware and Williston basins, consolidating nearly 10,000 net acres.

Riverbend has been building back a non-op portfolio since making a $1.8 billion exit in 2022.

The deal, with an unnamed buyer, included three Riverbend portfolios of interests in the Bakken/Three Forks, Utica, Fayetteville and Haynesville shale plays. The company acquired production that averaged 47,000 boe/d.

In June 2023, Houston-based Riverbend trumpeted its return to non-op M&A by acquiring “a sizeable” working interest in the Williston Basin.
