Diamondback Energy Inc. is nearing a deal to buy Silver Hill Energy Partners, the latest in a rush by oil producers to acquire drilling land in West Texas.
Diamondback is the likely winner of an auction for private-equity-owned Silver Hill, according to people familiar with the matter. A deal could be announced this week — assuming the talks don’t fall apart and another bidder doesn’t re-emerge, one of the person said.
A deal could value Silver Hill at around $2.5 billion, though it isn’t clear whether that includes assumed debt.
Silver Hill, run by a team based in Dallas, was founded in 2011 and built with $725 million from private-equity firms including Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors LP and Ridgemont Equity Partners.
