Through Carlyle International Energy Partners, Carlyle invested in SierraCol in 2020 and, together with the company’s management team, supported its growth into the largest independent oil and gas producer in Colombia, accounting for approximately 10% of the country’s crude oil production.
This transaction represents an important milestone for Colombia’s energy sector and reflects the continued confidence of international investors in the country.
At Posse Herrera Ruiz, we are proud to have supported Carlyle in this significant transaction through a team led by partners Jaime Herrera and Catalina Noreña from the firm’s M&A practice, and Álvaro J. Rodríguez from the Energy and Natural Resources practice.
