Since 2018, the Apollo team has completed hundreds of acquisitions in the Permian Basin.  We can quickly evaluate and close on properties of any size, and are accustomed to working with owners and families that have complex, multi-property inventories.

At Apollo we pride ourselves on on conducting business with integrity, always. We deal with all parties in a fair, honest and transparent manner, and can be counted on to follow through on our commitments. We are grateful to the hundreds of owners and companies we've done business with to date and look forward to being a premier buyer of Permian oil and gas properties for years to come.

Technical Expertise

Every lease or purchase offer we extend is based on a comprehensive technical evaluation of each property to ensure we provide owners with the most competitive prices possible. In addition, we work with world-class operators to responsibly develop the properties we acquire.
