Kerogen talks up dividend distributions
Private equity firm says ongoing return of capital to investors could avert a potential North Sea exit crunch
Kerogen Capital’s North Sea investments are “patient capital” with a 10-year lifecycle that offer “quite a lot of flexibility to execute the strategy and achieve milestones”, the private equity (PE) company’s vice-president for investment and portfolio management Natalia Simakina told the World Energy Capital Assembly (Weca) in London on Tuesday. The North Sea asset market has been buoyant of late.
