PRESS RELEASE
Excellere Partners, a Denver-based private equity firm focused on partnering with middle-market entrepreneurs and management teams, announced today it has expanded its investment portfolio through its strategic investment in Integrated Petroleum Technologies, Inc.

Founded in 1991 and headquartered in Lakewood, Colo., IPT specializes in the integration of modern oil and natural gas reservoir engineering, hydraulic fracture stimulation and well completion technologies to optimize the production of wells for its customers. The company, which deploys nearly fifty engineers, is led by some of the foremost experts in hydraulic fracturing and leverages its experience to more than 50,000 wells throughout the U.S.
IPT’s expertise in hydraulic fracturing has enabled the company to forge deep relationships with many of the leading exploration and production companies in the nation. The company’s fully integrated solution allows it to couple each of its disciplines to provide clients with a holistic solution that enhances the overall interpretation, recommendation and well production for each engagement. To date, IPT has served more than 100 customers in every major shale play in the U.S., along with some select international locations.
“We elected to partner with Excellere given its proprietary value creation tools and processes that we will leverage to help accelerate our growth and solidify our position as the premier provider of outsourced oil and natural gas engineering consulting services,” said Billy Aud, chief executive officer and co-founder of IPT.
