“Sua Sponte” is the motto of the US Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment. Latin for “of his own accord”, Sua Sponte describes an act taken without formal prompting from another party.
The fighting spirit demonstrated by Army Rangers throughout history inspires us. We see our role as professionals and entrepreneurs in the energy industry as a daily challenge and a labor of love and service to our country.
Our Ethos
“Proximity, Authenticity, Empowerment”
Proximity: We’re close to our people, property and service providers. Authenticity: We constantly seek to narrow the gap between what we think, what we say and what we do. And we believe empowerment and freedom to be an essential component of achievement, living a full life and creating value. In short, our ethos reminds us to stay close, be real and believe in the potential of people.
“For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love.” 2 Peter 1:5-8
Collectively, we have acquired and developed hundreds of thousands of acres of leasehold in nearly every lower 48 US oil and gas basin.
We care about every acre we acquire. We know each lease form like the back of our hands and we double check each decimal interest in order to properly develop our mineral owners’ properties.
We are experts in our field having designed and drilled over 800 wells in 4 continents. We design and build all of our pipelines and plants in order to maximize efficiency while watching our environmental footprint.
From science and theory to statistics and practice, we pride ourselves on knowing Completions. We pump the smartest fracture stimulation designs, making the most of each dollar invested.
