What Marauder Capital buys
Marauder Capital is a Fort Worth private equity firm started in 2023 by Roe Patterson and Adam Hurley, the former chief executive and a former finance chief of Basic Energy Services. It describes its target as lower middle market energy infrastructure, and in practice it buys oilfield and energy service companies with steady cash flow. Its four holdings cover saltwater disposal, well servicing, gas lift equipment and mobile power. The partners work directly with management on strategy and customer introductions.
Marauder publishes no revenue, EBITDA or check size figures, so its real size limits are unknown. Marauder Fund I has backed two platforms: Mako Lift in 2025 and Montco Power Solutions in 2026. Clearwell Dynamics and Ventana Midstream date from 2021, before that fund. In January 2026 it added an operating partner who spends most of his time on utility and infrastructure companies, which suggests interest beyond the oil patch. The firm has not announced an add-on, so there is no public record of how small a deal it will do.

Greymont’s take
How Marauder Capital fits a seller
Marauder suits owners of oilfield and energy service businesses, mainly in Texas and Louisiana, who want a buyer that has run this kind of company. Its managing partners were senior executives at Basic Energy Services, and one operating partner founded utility service companies and sold one to a private equity fund. Owners who handle produced water or drilling fluids should note Ventana Midstream, which runs 18 commercial saltwater disposal wells around the Haynesville.
This is a young firm. Every company on its site is still held, so there is no exit record to review. An owner who plans to keep a stake should ask how long Marauder expects to hold the business and how much of Fund I is still available, since the firm has not published the fund's size.
Questions owners ask
Does Marauder Capital own oilfield water and waste businesses?
Yes. It bought Ventana Midstream in 2021, before its first fund. Ventana hauls and disposes of produced water and drilling fluids for oil and gas producers in Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas, and it operates 18 commercial saltwater disposal wells.
What size company does Marauder Capital buy?
It does not publish revenue, EBITDA or check size limits. It describes its target only as lower middle market energy infrastructure companies with resilient cash flow, so an owner would need to ask the firm directly.
Who runs Marauder Capital?
Co-founders Roe Patterson and Adam Hurley are the managing partners. Patterson was chief executive of Basic Energy Services from 2013 to 2020, and Hurley was a chief financial officer at several energy companies after working as an investment banker.
