HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwire - September 29, 2009) - Quantum Energy Capital, LLC ("Quantum") has
held its final closing at $2.5 billion for Quantum Energy Partners V, a
private equity fund dedicated to the energy industry. Founded in 1998,
Quantum has more than $5.7 billion of assets under management. Champlain
Advisors, LLC acted as placement agent.
Quantum remains committed to the same investment strategy it has
successfully refined since its founding, targeting investment opportunities
between $100 and $400 million with proven management teams that possess a
clear vision and whose companies have sustainable competitive advantages
within well-defined segments or strategies in the energy industry. Quantum
primarily focuses on the oil and gas upstream, midstream and power sectors,
but considers opportunities across the entire energy industry.
Wil VanLoh, Quantum's President & CEO, stated, "We are extremely grateful
and humbled by the continued support of our investors and we truly value
the trust placed in our firm by both existing and new limited partners.
This fund represented a 90% increase from our last fund raised in 2006. The
strong response from the investor community during a very difficult
fundraising environment is a testament to our track record, investment
team, and reputation for partnering with the energy industry's top
management teams. We believe that over the next several years the favorable
investment environment in the energy industry will afford Quantum many
opportunities to invest substantial amounts of capital in highly attractive
situations."
