Company Overview

Vitesse Energy, Inc. (NYSE:VTS) is an independent energy company that invests in non-operated working interests and mineral and royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties. Rather than drilling and operating wells itself, the company partners with third-party exploration and production companies, allowing it to participate in production while relying on those operators to manage development and day-to-day operations.

The company’s portfolio is focused primarily on U.S. onshore oil and natural gas assets, including properties in regions such as the Bakken and Three Forks formations in North Dakota and other established producing basins. Vitesse seeks to build a diversified portfolio of interests across multiple wells, operators and geographic areas, with an emphasis on generating cash flow from producing properties and selectively acquiring additional interests.

Vitesse Energy was founded in 2014 and became a publicly traded company in January 2023 through a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company. The company is headquartered in Denver, Colorado. Robert Gerrity, who founded Vitesse, serves as its chief executive officer and has extensive experience in the energy industry.
