What We Do
SUCCESS BUILT ON THE FOCUSED AND DISCIPLINED EXECUTION OF A PROVEN STRATEGY.
OUR APPROACH
Urban pursues an active management strategy in an effort to optimize invested capital. We are distinguished by the proven successful execution of the pure acquire and exploit strategy. We identify acquisition targets, control costs, minimize risks, exploit development opportunities, and optimize the portfolio by strategically divesting assets when the market dictates.
STRATEGICALLY ACQUIRE
Urban pursues a disciplined focus on middle-market acquisition targets located in the major onshore producing areas of the United States. We seek opportunities that fit our operating profile, focusing on finding mature, high quality assets with strong development and operational improvement opportunities. Urban is continuously connected to the market. We leverage our in-house research, industry relationships, and industry partners to identify and execute acquisition opportunities.
EXPLOIT & OPTIMIZE
Urban pursues strategies to fully exploit the assets in order to achieve the maximum return possible for our partners. With a focus on maximizing production and identify future opportunities, we prudently manage capital programs appropriate for a given market environment, including drilling, workovers, chemical stimulation, fractionation, artificial lift, compression, and other economic recovery methods.
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
Urban executes a disciplined leverage program and a robust hedge portfolio. Urban's proven management team has extensive experience in managing all financial aspects associated with operating oil and gas investments. We continually evaluate our commercial arrangements and efficiently manage all back office responsibilities.
OPPORTUNISTICALLY DIVEST
Oil and gas properties can be managed for the long term or be liquidated at any stage of the investment. Urban remains focused on optimizing value to maximize returns for our partners.
